Abstract
The present application discloses a new form of μ-STAP, referred to herein as post μ-STAP or Pμ-STAP, which overcomes the drawbacks associated with existing μ-STAP techniques. The Pμ-STAP techniques described herein facilitate the generation of additional training data and homogenization after pulse compression. For example, Pμ-STAP techniques may apply a plurality of homogenization filters to a pulse compressed datacube generated from an input radar waveform, which produces a plurality of new pulse compressed datacubes with improved characteristics. Unlike existing μ-STAP techniques described above, which require pre-pulse compressed data to operate, the Pμ-STAP techniques disclosed in the present application are designed to utilize pulse compressed data, and therefore may be readily applied to legacy radar systems.
