Abstract :
A special space-time adaptive processing (STAP) scheme for airborne early warning (AEW) radar to detect a hovering helicopter target is advanced, which is based on using the echoes from the rotor blades of helicopter. Computer simulation results show that the performance of clutter suppression and signal processing of this method is good
