Synopsis

This text is part of a two-volume series on space-time adaptive processing (STAP). The second book on "applications of STAP" is to follow. The work is based on the author's primary research; the focus is on giving a systematic introduction to airborne MTI radar design for use in the fields of earth observation, surveillance and reconnaissance, with particular regard to the suppression of clutter returns. Coverage includes signal processing techniques, modelling, adaptive clutter filters, suboptimum techniques, antenna configurations, jamming, channel errors and system applications.
