I. INTRODUCTION
Space-time adaptive processing (STAP) is a popular radar
signal processing technique to detect slow-moving targets
in the presence of a strong interference background. The
space dimension arises from the use of an array of N
antenna elements and the time dimension from the use of a
coherent train of M pulses. The power of STAP comes
from the joint processing along the space and time
dimensions. The data collected by STAP radars are a
sequence of N M arrays, one at each range. These arrays

A Problem Description
The radar antenna is a uniformly spaced linear array
antenna consisting of N elements. Radar returns are
collected in a coherent processing interval (CPI), which is
referred to as the 3-D radar data cube shown in Figure. 1,

the radar into receiver only mode and collect the jammer
signals or we can use historical data for the projection
purpose.

The SINR is also plotted against the no: of range gates and
found that higher ranges results are good. The result is
shown in Fig.6.

V. CONCLUSION
The ground moving target surveillance is a very important
application of radars as always. But usually airborne radars
used for the purpose are faced with objections caused by
the interference. STAP has been a best option for
suppressing the clutters and make targets detectable.
The subspace based technique for clutter suppression is
based on matrix operations and are easy to apply. The
subspace can be chosen by measuring the orthogonality
between the received signal space and the subspace in
which the data is to be projected. This method consumes
less time to perform the operation and does not have any
hardware issues like DPCA algorithm.
