Abstract
This paper examines the problem of suppressing the dynamic clutter and multitarget detection in a digital video broadcasting-terrestrial (DVB-T)-based passive bistatic radar (PBR). A two-step low-complexity clutter suppression method is presented to attenuate the nonstationary multipath/clutter in a multiple-frequency network. In the first step, we estimate the multipath signals, as orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing channel coefficients, in a symbolwise approach. The variation of the clutter signal is tracked, using the complex exponential basis expansion model, in the second step. Then, the estimated multipath/clutter signals are subtracted from the received signals. An iterative algorithm is also proposed for detecting targets sequentially in a multitarget scenario. The performance of the proposed method is derived analytically, and a criterion is suggested for comparing different clutter cancellation schemes. The resulting solution is shown to be more efficient than other methods in terms of time and memory complexities.
