Abstract :
A new approach for detecting a particular class of moving targets is presented. This method exploits characteristics of specific non-linear targets to both eliminate moving objects that are not of interest and suppress stationary clutter. Details of the underlying physical phenomena are discussed, and the signal processing procedures leveraged by the non-linear radar system are outlined in detail.
