Radar Propagation Modeling in a Complex Maritime Environment
Bourlier, Christophe
Radar Propagation Modeling in a Complex Maritime Environment, advanced numerical techniques are addressed to significantly reduce the complexity and the memory requirement for solving the linear system resulting from the discretization of the boundary integral equations by the Method of Moments (MoM). This allows us to solve HF (3-30 MHz) and VHF (1-20 GHz) Radar propagation practical problems like the propagation in a complex maritime environment. Typically, the problem of the VHF wave scattering from an object above a rough sea surface in a ducting environment is investigated and also, the HF radar propagation above the Earth in the presence of islands. In addition, rapid asymptotic theories, in which simplifying assumptions are introduced, are derived and compared with references methods based on the MoM.
