Title :
Near Earth Millimeter Wave RADAR and Radiometry
Author :
Richer, Kenneth A.
Abstract :
The Army is interested in detection systems operating on the earth or at relatively low altitudes . Hopefully, these systems will detect targets, identify them, and guide missiles to the targets. Since grazing angles of 0.1 to 1 degree are involved, multipath signal distortion occurs. The multipath signal causes antenna pattern distortion and inaccurate pointing.
