  • Abstract
    A technique for simulating the high range-resolution and microDoppler signatures of a human moving on the ground has been presented. The direct path and the ground reflected path from the radar to the human give rise to three distinct two-way propagation paths between the radar and the human. The simulated signatures are studied as functions of ground reflectivity, radar elevation and type of motions.
