Abstract: A technique for detecting and eliminating "sea-spike" interference in a rrn radar-signal. A series of signal delay means in cooperation with associated subtractors are utilized to detect particular sea-spike modulation interference frequencies. Detection of these modulation frequency components causes activation of means for preventing the sea-spike contaminated return signal from being further processed.

Abstract: An improved side-lobe canceller system for reducing interference introduced nto a signal receiving system from multiple interference sources. A first canceller loop associated with an auxiliary channel operates independently to decorrelate its auxiliary signal and the output sample of a main channel signal from its own subtractor. Each of a remaining plurality of canceller loops, also associated with an auxiliary channel and operating independently, are serially connected to successively operate on the output of a previous canceller loop. When all auxiliary canceller loops have operated, a second series of the same canceller loops arranged to follow the first series, provides an additional iteration to the canceller system. By utilizing a plurality of serially arranged iterations to operate on the signals received by the plurality of auxiliary channels, the interference in the main channel may be significantly reduced.
