Abstract
This paper describes an innovative concept for knowledge-based control of space-time adaptive processing (STAP) for airborne early warning r adar, The knowledge-based approach holds potential for significant per formance improvements over classical STAP processing in nonhomogeneous environments by taking advantage of a priori knowledge. Under this ap proach, knowledge-based control is used to direct pre-adaptive filteri ng, and to carefully select STAP algorithms, parameters, and secondary data cells.
