Abstract

Systems and method of detection and discrimination of targets in the presence of interference are disclosed. A system transmits a signal and then receives signals including interference and reflections of transmitted signals. The system processes the received signals and transmitted signals to generate a 2D representation of the STAP cube with one of the dimensions collapsed. The system then reduces the interference contributions and identifies angle and Doppler component of potential targets. The system then computes slices, which are one dimensional representation of cross-ambiguity functions of the received and transmitted signals. It reduces the interference contributions in the slices and determines range components of the targets.
