Iterative Space-Time Adaptive Processing

To reduce the need of secondary data and/or accurate prior knowledge of the clutter statistics in space-time adaptive processing (STAP), we present herein a user parameter-free and secondary data-free fully automatic weighted least squares based iterative adaptive approach (IAA) to angle-Doppler imaging for airborne surveillance radar systems.
