The STAP Method for Moving Sonar Reverberation Suppression

Article Preview

Abstract:

The theory of full dimension and reduced dimension STAP was introduced. Based on the physical mechanism of reverberation formation, the suppression of moving sonar reverberation and the possibility of improvement of detection performance were analyzed and discussed, and the solutions of several key steps were given. The analysis shows that reverberation suppression using STAP is more difficult than clutter suppression of AEW, but its implementation is possible. The results of simulation show that the STAP method can achieve better detection performance than conventional method. The STAP method can utilize the space-time characteristic of moving sonar reverberation sufficiently, and so is a promising new method of reverberation suppression.
