Abstract
Terrain scattered interference or hot clutter is a problem in radar ECCM, especially for airborne radar with low sidelobe antennas and conventional adaptive sidelobe cancellation. A deconvolution approach is proposed to mitigate terrain scattered interference. This approach is based on obtaining an estimate of the complex multipath impulse response from a short time interval in the received signals. The impulse response estimate is then convolved with a direct path reference signal to generate an estimate of the received terrain scattered interference signal. This interference signal estimate is then subtracted from the received main beam signal to generate a main beam signal with mitigated terrain scattered interference.
