Description: This research develops a space-time adaptive processing (STAP) radar model
for side-looking (SL) arrays with platform maneuver incorporation, and examines ma-
neuver effects on Matched Filter (MF) performance and sample support homogeneity
for linear and planar arrays at various ranges. A primary assumption of most STAP
models is the absence of platform maneuver during the coherent processing interval
(CPI). This research abandons the platform stationarity assumption, allowing plat-
form pitch, roll, and yaw during the CPI. Maneuver rates (set to 800◦ /sec) are held
constant throughout the CPI and each maneuver type is examined individually.
