Improving practical space-time adaptive radar

Abstract
This paper discusses the incorporation of nonhomogeneity detection with space-time adaptive processing to improve the formation of adaptive weights in practical adaptive airborne radar. We examine the problem of improving interference covariance matrix estimation in real-world environments and discuss several approaches for integrating nonhomogeneity detection with space-time adaptive processing. We use measured airborne data from the Rome Laboratory Multichannel Airborne Radar Measurements Program to illustrate key points.
