  6. BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE • Space-Time Adaptive Processing (STAP) coherently combines signals from the elements of an array and the multiple snapshots of signals, to achieve large spatial/temporal signal gain, to suppress interference, and to provide target detection in azimuth and velocity. • Matched-field processing (MFP) coherently combines complex multi-path arrivals, to recover signal multi-path spreading loss and to provide range/depth localization. • STAMP combines STAP and MFP to improve detection and localization performance for the mobile multi-line-towed-array sonar systems.
