Abstract
The detection performance of high-frequency surface wave radar (HFSWR) is significantly impacted by ionospheric clutter and sea clutter. In order to suppress the ionospheric clutter, a new method based on the largest Lyapunov exponent prediction algorithm is proposed in this Letter. Firstly, it is demonstrated, for the first time, that the ionospheric clutter from HFSWR is a chaotic dynamical process, and then the largest Lyapunov exponent is estimated using the Wolf algorithm. After verifying the actual data, this suppression algorithm can decrease the amplitude of the ionospheric clutter by at least 30 dB.
