Sea, Land, and Rain Clutter Measurement II,

Abstract

A phase-stable pulse radar system with dual frequency and dual range modes of operation was built to study radar clutter. Tests using the radar have resulted in sea and rain clutter data which are being studied by APL/JHU. Instrumentation of the radar was covered in DRL-537 'Sea, Land, and Rain Clutter Measurement' (U) dated 3 May 1966. The present report covers modifications made to the system in 1966. It described rain clutter measurements made in Austin and sea clutter measurements made in Galveston, Texas and Cape Cod, Massachusettes. (Author)
