Results of flight tests of a two-channel radar system with real-time MTI processing

Space-time adaptive processing (STAP) in real-time is discussed for two applications: first, STAP can be used for suppressing clutter and jammers; moreover, clutter filter coefficients gained by STAP can be used for the purpose of the correct positioning of moving targets within SAR images. Results of this real-time STAP technique as well as the results of the moving-target repositioning technique are presented: the clutter-suppression quality and the moving target repositioning accuracy are demonstrated with real SAR data and moving targets recorded during a measurement campaign.
