Non-homogeneity detector for Gaussian and non-Gaussian interference scenarios

This paper presents a statistical analysis of two schemes for intelligent STAP training data selection in Gaussian and non-Gaussian interference backgrounds. Performance analysis of the two methods is carried out using simulated as well as measured radar data.
