This chapter begins with a formulation of the RUWO algorithm in Section 18.2 and its application to producing spatial, frequency, and space-frequency transmit nulls for radio frequency interference avoidance, followed by a description of the Naval Research Laboratory's Space Time Adaptive Nulling (STAN) radar test bed, an eight-channel X-band coherent MIMO radar test bed used to experimentally verify the performance of the RUWO algorithm in Section 18.3. Section 18.4 then provides a description of narrowband loop-back and open-air experimental applications of RUWO that were originally presented in [14,15], respectively. Following the narrowband results is an explanation in Section 18.5 of how the RUWO algorithm is incorporated into a method for producing wideband FM waveforms with large space-frequency nulls as discussed in [11]. The chapter concludes with a summary of presented work and a discussion of future work and open problems on the topic of space-time transmit nulling with the goal of RF spectrum interoperability.
