The most common processing approach in the time or space domain is enhancement of the input signal through a method called filtering. Digital filtering generally consists of some linear transformation of a number of surrounding samples around the current sample of the input or output signal. There are various ways to characterize filters; for example:
A linear filter is a linear transformation of input samples; other filters are non-linear. Linear filters satisfy the superposition condition, i.e. if an input is a weighted linear combinat ....etc

Space-Time Adaptive Processing (STAP) refers to a class of signal processing techniques used to process the returns of an antenna array radar system. It enhances the ability of radar to detect targets that might otherwise be obscured by clutter or jamming. The output of STAP is a linear combination or weighted sum of the input signal samples. The “adaptive” in STAP refers to the fact that STAP weights are computed to reflect the actual noise, clutter and jamming environment in which the radar finds itself. The “space� ....etc

Space-Time Adaptive Processing: Fundamentals


ABSTRACT


Space-time Adaptive Processing (STAP) is a signal processing technique most commonly used in radar systems. It involves adaptive array processing algorithms to aid in target detection. Radar signal processing benefits from STAP in areas where interference is a problem (i.e. ground clutter, jamming, etc.). Through careful application of STAP, it is possible to achieve order-of-magnitude sensitivity improvements in target detection.STAP involves a twodimensional filtering technique ....etc

Free space optical communications is a line-of-sight (LOS) technology that transmits a modulated beam of visible or infrared light through the atmosphere for broadband communications. In a manner similar to fiber optical communications, free space optics uses a light emitting diode (LED) or laser (light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation) point source for data transmission. However, in free space optics, an energy beam is collimated and transmitted t ....etc

Abstract
Improved space“time coding for multiple-input and multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing is studied for wireless systems using QPSK modulation for four transmit and four receive antennas. A 256-state code is shown to perform within 3 dB of outage capacity (and within 2 dB with perfect channel estimation), which is better than any other published result without using iterative decoding. ....etc
