The effect of different ground characteristic to the stability and similarity of target spectra in FSR micro-sensor network

This paper investigates the effect of different ground characteristic to the stability and similarity of target spectra for ground based forward scattering radar (FSR) micro-sensor network. This research used simulation signals in to improve the performance of detection and classification of FSR micro-sensor network. Several parameters of carrier frequency and size of target were analyzed. In addition, the conditions of the ground considered in this research are concrete dry, average and wet ground. The simulation results are obtained by using Mathlab software. The obtained results show the stability and similarity of target spectra when the conductivity and permittivity of different ground exists. From the results, a database and estimation of system performance can be drawn as a guideline for future works.
