Claim 20:
21. A radar detection system for detecting ground moving targets using a post-pulse compressed data space time adaptive processing (Pμ-STAP) technique, the radar detection system comprising:
one or more processors configured to:
processing one or more received input radar waveforms to produce a pulse compressed datacube;
apply a plurality of homogenization filters to the pulse compressed datacube to produce a plurality of homogenized pulse compressed datacubes;
non-transitory computer-readable storage medium
execute a partial adaptation process against an output covariance matrix;
initiate space-time adaptive processing with respect to the pulse compressed datacube and an output of the partial adaptation process to identify one or more candidate targets of interest, wherein the space-time adaptive processing is configured to identify one or more candidate targets of interest by filtering the pulse compressed datacube based on the output of the partial adaptation process; and
detect one or more targets of interest from among the one or more candidate targets of interests identified by the space-time adaptive processing; and

a memory communicatively coupled to the one or more processors.
