Abstract :
The paper describes one possible algorithm for object detection by using of Forward Scatter (FS) radio shadows created by objects. The algorithm is verified on the experimental data collected by a GPS receiver with a small commercial antenna. The results obtained show the possibility for object detection when its FS shadow is present.
