  • Abstract
    High frequency (HF) radar systems have a potential to detect targets which are located beyond the optical horizon on the sea surface. Unfortunately sea clutter may be strong enough to prevent such detection. In this work we present results of applying space-time adaptive processing (STAP) to this problem. Real, registered signals were used for numerical experiments.
