Elevation Filter Design for Short-Range Clutter Suppression on Airborne Radar in MIMO System

Range ambiguity clutter suppression for bistatic STAP radar

Bistatic pulse-Doppler airborne radar has desirable properties such as the low probability of detection by other radars relative to its monostatic counterpart. However, the clutter characteristics of bistatic airborne radar are more complex than those of monostatic airborne radar. The clutter spectra not only vary severely with range, but also vary with bistatic configuration. In this article, ...

Adaptive Clutter Suppression for Airborne Random Pulse Repetition Interval Radar Based on Compressed Sensing

We present an adaptive clutter suppression method for airborne random pulse repetition interval radar by using prior knowledge of clutter boundary in Doppler spectrum. In this method, by exploiting the intrinsic sparsity, compressed sensing based on iterative grid optimization (CS-IGO) is applied to directly recover the clutter spectrum with only the test range cell instead of nonhomogeneous tr...

Power Allocation Strategies for MIMO Radar Waveform Design

The role of waveform design is central to effective radar resource management for state-of-the art radar systems. The waveform shape employed by any radar system has always been a key factor in determining the performance and application. The design of radar waveform to minimize mean square error (MSE) in estimating the target impulse response is based on power allocation using waterfilling. ...

Design of MIMO radar waveform covariance matrix for Clutter and Jamming suppression based on space time adaptive processing

This paper studies the optimization of waveform covariance matrix (WCM) for airborne multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) radar systems in the presence of clutter and jamming. The goal is to enhance the target detection performance by suppressing the clutter and jamming based on space time adaptive processing (STAP). We employ the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) as the figure of...
