Space-time Adaptive Processing




STAP involves a two-dimensional Filtering technique using a Phased-array antenna with multiple spatial channels. Coupling multiple spatial channels with Pulse-Doppler waveforms lends to the name "space-time." Applying the Statistics of the interference environment, an adaptive STAP weight vector is formed. This weight vector is applied to the Coherent samples received by the radar.


HISTORY

The theory of STAP was first published by Lawrence E. Brennan and Irving S. Reed in the early 1970's. At the time of publication, both Brennan and Reed were at Technology Service Corporation (TSC).
