W. Melvin et al., KNOWLEDGE-BASED SPACE-TIME ADAPTIVE PROCESSING FOR AIRBORNE EARLY WARNING RADAR, IEEE aerospace and electronic systems magazine, 13(4), 1998, pp. 37-42
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.
