Abstract

In 1996, the United States Air Force initiated the Advanced Airborne Surveillance Program (AASP) to develop and demonstrate the detection performance of state-of-the-art multi-channel bistatic airborne radar technology. The AASP sensor utilizes a multi-channel, phased-array receiver, mounted on a BAC1-11 to collect and process bistatic radar returns from moving targets, clutter and jammers. The bistatic multi-channel airborne radar measurements (MCARM) data provides a good starting point in developing STAP algorithms for the AASP system. The steady exploitation of the MCARM data has yielded much insight into the performance of several STAP algorithms in various monostatic as well as bistatic scenarios. This paper describes the bistatic experiments and presents several results attesting to the applicability of STAP algorithms to the bistatic scenarios.
