Abstract
A system and method for detecting targets with radar signals are disclosed which include a receiver configured to receive a radar signal on orthogonally-polarized channels and generate a receiver return vector from the received radar signal, a range filter configured to filter reflections in the receiver return vector at a selected range bin, and a polarization filter configured to filter an identified interference signal from a return of the range filter.
