Abstract

Passive radar (PR) systems need to detect the presence of a target response, which is many orders of magnitude weaker than the clutter (direct signal and multipath). Indeed, the clutter cancellation is a key stage within a PR processing scheme. One of the most effective techniques in this field is using the CLEAN approach. In this paper, the batch-based CLEAN technique based on GMP and FFT has been proposed, which can speed up the computational processing and have better cancellation gain. Furthermore, segmenting operation can be applied to the signal obtained over long time. It is helpful to enhance temporal or spatial efficiency and overcome effect of time-varying clutter. Experiment results with simulated and real passive radar data verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
