Application of a least squares predictive-transform modeling methodology to space-time adaptive array processing

In a companion paper, an efficient least squares (LS) predictive transform (PT) multichannel modeling framework was presented that arose as an inherent byproduct of the optimization of a PT signal source "encoder." In this correspondence, the LS PT approach is applied to the space-time adaptive array processing problem arising in airborne moving target indicator (MTI) radar. Simulation results are presented that demonstrate the utility of the LS PT approach.
