Abstract :
For bistatic synthetic aperture radar (Bi-SAR) with phased array antenna and arbitrary bi-static geometry configuration, this paper proposes a clutter modeling method for clutter suppressing and ground moving target detection. Furthermore, based on the simulated space-time clutter spectrum of four typical specific geometry configurations, the detailed analysis is also given for the clutter suppressing performance with space-time adaptive processing (STAP), Finally, some important conclusions are given for Bi-SAR with different geometry configuration.
