This paper proposes two modified space time adaptive processing (STAP) methods based on piecewise sub-apertures and data constraints for non-stationary interference cancellation in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) applications. In these methods, the entire synthetic aperture time is divided into several sub-apertures so that the interference can be considered as stationary in each sub-aperture. At the same time, the consistency of the echo phase in the slow time domain is preserved by the data constraint to ensure the null depth of the antenna pattern for non-stationary interference cancellation and the performance of azimuth focusing in SAR. The proposed algorithms are validated through the model simulation and measured data.
