Dynamic clutter mitigation using sparse optimization

The impact of wind farms on radar systems, such as air traf-fc control (ATC), air defense (AD), and weather radars, is a signifcant issue, especially considering that demand for wind power and wind farms is increasing dramatically. According to the American Wind Energy Association, more than 51,630 MW of wind power capacity are installed in the United States [1]. There are also more than 8,900 MW of wind power capacity under construction, involving more than 90 separate projects spanning 31 states and Puerto Rico [2].
