The impact of PRF, antenna size, antenna separations and number of channels on detection performance is studied. The analysis is based on a post-Doppler approach of the optimal processor.","PeriodicalId":124475,"journal":{"name":"2006 International Radar Symposium","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134360068","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

STDA is a new approach, suitable to processing multiple radar signals which utilizes spatial and temporal scintillations in the instantaneous signal power. To test the practical potential of STDA, we used multi-channel airborne radar measurements (MCARM) database, which was developed to test and improve space-time adaptive processing (STAP). In particular, we processed the MCARM file rd050575, obtained from flight 5, cycle d, and acquisition 575. The goal was to detect the Sabreliner airplane flying towards the radar-carrying airplane BAC 1-11 in the presence of urban, land, and sea clutter. Second-order structure functions for multiple radar signals were used for the processing. This simplified STDA technique applied in the time domain only provides a good performance by detecting the Sabreliner with a false alarm rate below 10' in the same range bin where it was previously detected using several STAP variants.","PeriodicalId":124475,"journal":{"name":"2006 International Radar Symposium","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114509877","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The practical performance of the KB scheme is compared with conventional FFT-based Doppler processing and a traditional adaptive algorithm that does not exploit additional information.","PeriodicalId":124475,"journal":{"name":"2006 International Radar Symposium","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123644036","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
