  • Abstract
    The aim of the paper is to give an overview of capacities and interests of space-time adaptive processing (STAP) for air to air operations. In order to evaluate the benefits of STAP without artifact effects due to the chosen algorithm, a less computation load implementation of the maximum likelihood ratio test has been developed and is detailed in the paper. Results of simulations are shown and point out the expected benefits of STAP for clutter reduction in air to air operations
