Abstract: The presence of clutter is a big obstacle for proper detection of targets in seaborne radar systems. Spatio- temporal adaptive processing (STAP) helps to remove the problem of clutter by exploiting Doppler spread. The modeling requirements of clutter for spatio-temporal adaptive processing are considered in this study. Modeling of the internal motion of seaborne clutter and its effect in the clutter domain is also studied.
Keywords: Adaptive processing, Doppler spread, Intrinsic clutter motion, Seaborne clutter, Spatio-temporal.
