Abstract :
In this paper, dealing with long range ground surveillance radars, it is shown that the simultaneous requirement for wideband waveforms and multiple channels opens the way to new space-time signals and processing techniques, thus improving the detection and classification of multiple ground (and low-flying) targets.
