Radar systems have been very effective in gathering information in a battlefield, so that the tactical actions can be decided. On the contrary, self-protection systems have been developed to break this activity of radars, for which radar signals must be intercepted to be able to take counter measures on time. Ideally, interception should be done in a certain time with a 100% probability, but in reality this is not the case. To intercept radar signals in shortest time with the highest probability, a search strategy should be developed for the receiver. This thesis studies the conditions under which the intercept time increases and the probability of intercept decreases. Moreover, it investigates the performance of the search strategy of Clarkson with respect to these conditions, which assumes that a priori knowledge about the radars that will be intercepted is available. Then, the study identifies the cases where the search strategy of Clarkson may be not desirable according to tactical necessities, and proposes a probabilistic search strategy, in which it is possible to intercept radar signals with a specified probability in a certain time.

Jammer cancelation by using space-time adaptive processing
Uysal, Halil; Severcan, Mete; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011)
Space-Time Adaptive Processing (STAP) has been widely used in spaceborne and airborne radar platforms in order to track ground moving targets. Jammer is an hostile electronic countermeasure that is being used to degrade radar detection and tracking performance. STAP adapts radar’s antenna radiating pattern in order to reduce jamming effectiveness. Jamming power that enters the system is decreased with respect to the adapted radiation pattern. In this thesis, a generic STAP radar model is developed and imple...
A Knowledge based approach in GMTI for the estimation of the clutter covariance matrix in space time adaptive processing
Anadol, Erman; Tanık, Yalçın; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2012)
Ground Moving Target Indication (GMTI) operation relies on clutter suppression techniques for the detection of slow moving ground targets in the presence of strong radar returns from the ground. Space Time Adaptive Processing (STAP) techniques provide a means to achieve this goal by adaptively forming the clutter suppression filter, whose parameters are obtained using an estimated covariance matrix of the clutter data. Therefore, the performance of the GMTI operation is directly a ected by the performance o...
Simulation-based comparison of some gmti techniques
Baktır, Can; Koç, Seyit Sencer; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2009)
With the developing radar technology, radars have been started to be used in the airborne platforms due to the need of fast, accurate and reliable information about the enemies. The most important and tactically needed information is the movements in an observation area. The detection of a ground moving target buried in a dense clutter environment from a moving air platform is a very challenging problem even today. The geometry of the operation, the course of the flight and structure of the clutter are the ...
Parametric estimation of clutter autocorrelation matrix for ground moving target indication
Kalender, Emre; Tanık, Yalçın; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2013)
In airborne radar systems with Ground Moving Target Indication (GMTI) mode, it is desired to detect the presence of targets in the interference consisting of noise, ground clutter, and jamming signals. These interference components usually mask the target return signal, such that the detection requires suppression of the interference signals. Space-time adaptive processing is a widely used interference suppression technique which uses temporal and spatial information to eliminate the effects of clutter and ...
Spectral and statistical analyses of experimental radar clutter data
Kahyaoğlu, Nazlı Deniz; Yılmaz, Ali Özgür; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2010)
The performance of radar detection and imaging systems strongly depends on the characteristics of radar clutter. In order to improve the radar signal processing algorithms, successful analysis and modeling of radar clutter are required. For a successful model of radar clutter, both the spectral and statistical characteristics of the clutter should be revealed. Within the scope of this study, an experimental radar data acquisition system is established to analyze radar clutter. The hardware and the data proc...
