Mathematical Model for Radar in 3D Virtual Maritime Environment to Aid Dynamic Perception

Laser and radar technology is an area of interest in the field of military research. Currently military services face many challenges in maintaining financial stability and sustainability in training phases. Military trainings exercises focus mainly on strengthening the simulation culture rather than focusing on theoretical aspects. In the sphere of military radars, simulators play very important roll with regard to low cost and lesser risk. In this research we focus on implementing a mathematical model for radar simulation in 3D maritime environment with dynamic perceptions. The proposed approach takes the 3D environment as the input and maps the objects via electromagnetic wave properties. It captures the surrounding environment and gives the 2D visualization of the 3D environment as the end result. This approach uses efficient techniques by embedding the optical phenomena of reflection, refraction, polarization and attenuation in wave propagation.
