A Joint Transmitter-Receiver Adaptive STAP Algorithm of Clutter Suppression for Airborne MIMO Radar

Abstract:

In airborne MIMO radar, distributing characteristic of clutter have some relation with transmitted waveform diversity and Waveform Synthetic Structure. In this paper , we use the predominance of Transmitted waveform diversity on airborne MIMO radar, A joint transmitter-receiver adaptive dispose algorithm is proposed, and STAP dispose is done in wave, air and time dimension for airborne MIMO radar. The result of simulations show the proposed algorithm achieved the aim of clutter joint suppression, sequentially, which increase the performance of clutter suppression on airborne MIMO radar.
