Abstract:

The hybrid skysurfacewave radar (HSSWR) system, with 1D linear array antennas, cannot suppress multipath spread Doppler clutter (SDC), which restricts its practical application in ship targets detection. To resolve this problem,based on the difference in the concentration of SDC and stable ocean clutter in fractional Fourier transform (FRFT) field, an SDC suppression approach on the basis of FRFT is proposed. Finally, theoretical analysis and the results of simulations indicate its effectiveness.
