Abstract
Rapid growth in the number of wind farms may influence the performance of many radar systems. The radar echoes originating from wind turbine´s blades and tower may mask existing objects or generate false plots. In the presented paper the authors analyze the influence of a wind turbine on Passive Coherent Location radars and discuss the effectiveness of simple methods used to overcome problems associated with it. The results of a simulation along with the recorded echoes of the wind turbine gathered by DVB-T based passive radar demonstrator are also shown in the paper.
