Abstract
This paper describes the application of a new nonrecurrent waveform (NRWF) to a relocatable over-the-horizon radar (ROTHR) located in southern Virginia. The waveform is designed to improve the detection of aircraft targets through the mitigation of long-range spread Doppler clutter (SDC) encountered during nighttime operations. A discussion of the NRWF and its principle of operation are included, along with a description of ROTHR modifications. The focus of the paper is the presentation of test results from engineering, clutter mitigation, and target detection tests conducted during January through April of 1997.

Implications of Diversified Doppler for Random PRI Radar

TL;DR: In this paper , a physically meaningful Doppler manifold signal model that incorporates slow-time coding and is examined in the context of monostatic, multiple-time-around (MTA) scattering, and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) configurations is presented.

Space-time adaptive processing for range-folded spread-Doppler radar clutter mitigation

TL;DR: Blind source separation methods are used to exploit the known Doppler separation afforded by non-recurrent waveforms in order to estimate the spatial wavefront of the clutter across a linear receive array and spatial adaptive processing using this estimated wavefront is used to suppress range-folded clutter without sacrificing usable Dopple space.
