STRAAP: space-time-radiating array adaptive processing

This paper provides an overview of the physical and mathematical approach to the synthesis and analysis of a multidimensional adaptive radar system. Using a paradigm of distributed sensors, the characterized concept leverages the dimensional advantages gained in such a system by exploiting the inherent, space, time, and waveform domains for adaptive processing. Execution of space-time-radiating array adaptive processing (STRAAP) makes use of the full parametric domain. Data analysis within this extended space suggests system performance advantages in radar target detection, object isolation, and scenario depiction.
