Abstract

The space-time adaptive processing (STAP) can improve the performance of airborne early warning (AEW) radar. But, the receiver channel mismatch will give rise to much degradation of the performance for STAP. This paper introduces an efficient adaptive channel equalization method which can compensate the channel mismatch automatically by least squares theory. The effect of equalizer parameters on equalization performance is analysed in detail, and a sample of adaptive channel equalizer is given
