Abstract

In this paper MTI filter based clutter rejection technique is presented. How clutter rejection ability increases with the increase in Delay line canceleres in the MTI filter structure is shown here. Feedback path increases the response of a MTI filter and using feedback path four different types of MTI recursive filters are designed and tested for Radar clutter rejection. Matlab (7.9) is used as the simulation platform.
