ABSTRACT:
Pulsed or mutual interference in a pulse radar system is ameliorated by a process that includes a pulse-Doppler filter, some frequency bins of which correlate with clutter. Pulsed interference is identified, and the corresponding column vectors of a pulse-Doppler-filter-equivalent matrix are identified. The row values of the corresponding interference-affected column vectors that correlate with clutter are nulled. The vectors are orthogonalized, and then converted to measurement and correction signal vectors for application to the pulse-Doppler received signals. Vector dot products of the measurement signal vectors with the received signals are calculated, to produce pulsed interference measurements that are nominally free of clutter. The pulsed interference measurements are combined with the correction signals which are then subtracted from the received signals to produce signals that are nominally free of pulsed interference. In one embodiment, the pulsed interference-free received signals are applied to a pulse-Doppler filter to suppress the clutter signals.
