Abstract :
Vegetation clutter is a significant factor that limit the performance of ground-based Forward Scatter Radar. The clutter experimental and statistical analysis of Forward Scatter Micro-sensors is presented in this paper. The analysis involved different parameters: different operating frequencies, wind speed and different baseline length to see the effect of the parameters to clutter. The clutter characteristics are then discussed.
