ABSTRACT:
A signal processing system applies space-time adaptive processing ("STAP") to an airborne surveillance Doppler radar comprised of a single-channel, rotating antenna. The STAP substantially improves signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio ("SINR"), thereby improving the detection of weak targets.
