Knowledge-Aided STAP Using Low Rank and Geometry Properties
This paper presents knowledge-aided space-time adaptive processing (KA-STAP)
algorithms that exploit the low-rank dominant clutter and the array geometry
properties (LRGP) for airborne radar applications. The core idea is to exploit
the fact that the clutter subspace is only determined by the space-time
steering vectors,
{red}{where the Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization approach is employed to
compute the clutter subspace. Specifically, for a side-looking uniformly spaced
linear array, the} algorithm firstly selects a group of linearly independent
space-time steering vectors using LRGP that can represent the clutter subspace.
By performing the Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization procedure, the orthogonal
bases of the clutter subspace are obtained, followed by two approaches to
compute the STAP filter weights. To overcome the performance degradation caused
by the non-ideal effects, a KA-STAP algorithm that combines the covariance
matrix taper (CMT) is proposed. For practical applications, a reduced-dimension
version of the proposed KA-STAP algorithm is also developed. The simulation
results illustrate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithms, and show that
the proposed algorithms converge rapidly and provide a SINR improvement over
existing methods when using a very small number of snapshots.Comment: 16 figures, 12 pages. IEEE Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic

Blind adaptive constrained reduced-rank parameter estimation based on constant modulus design for CDMA interference suppression
This paper proposes a multistage decomposition for blind adaptive parameter estimation in the Krylov subspace with the code-constrained constant modulus (CCM) design criterion. Based on constrained optimization of the constant modulus cost function and utilizing the Lanczos algorithm and Arnoldi-like iterations, a multistage decomposition is developed for blind parameter estimation. A family of computationally efficient blind adaptive reduced-rank stochastic gradient (SG) and recursive least squares (RLS) type algorithms along with an automatic rank selection procedure are also devised and evaluated against existing methods. An analysis of the convergence properties of the method is carried out and convergence conditions for the reduced-rank adaptive algorithms are established. Simulation results consider the application of the proposed techniques to the suppression of multiaccess and intersymbol interference in DS-CDMA systems
Stochastic Optimization: Theory and Applications
As an important branch of applied mathematics, optimization theory, especially stochastic optimization, becomes an important tool for solving multiobjective decision-making problems in random process recently. Many kinds of industrial, biological, engineering, and economic problems can be viewed as stochastic systems, for example, area of communication, gene, signal processing, geography, civil engineering, aerospace, banking, and so forth. Stochastic optimization is suitable to solve the decision-making problems in these stochastic systems
