Radar Adaptivity: Antenna Based Signal Processing Techniques

The lecture will develop along the topics beginning of RADAR, operational needs, side lobe blanking and cancellation techniques, adaptive antennas arrays, practical examples of adaptivity to ground based radar, Space Time Adaptive Processing (STAP) for airborne radar, KB (Knowledge-Based) STAP, STAP for OTH (Over-The-Horizon), passive coherent location ending with conclusions and the way ahead.
