Ground clutter model for forward scatter radar (FSR) with very high frequency (VHF) and ultra high frequency (UHF) bands in tropical region / Nor Najwa Ismail

The lack of traditional radar system during this era is the inefficient to detect targets that occupied with radar absorbing material (RAM) coating. Forward scatter radar (FSR) was introduced to overcome the problem by operating via shadowing concept. The target is detected when it crosses the basel...
