A Study of Frequency Properties for Forward Looking Imaging Radar
نویسنده
چکیده
Autonomous UGVs (unmanned ground vehicles) has been extensively investigated it’s capabilities for military applications. In order to operate the UGVs on the open fields, they must be able to detect obstacles (eg. holes, stumps, rocks, etc) concealed behind vegetation canopies, as well as to detect surface. Forward looking imaging radar is necessary to autonomous UGVs for collision avoidance and the frequency range of the radar is definitely important to decide radar performance of the vegetation penetration. In this paper, the performance of penetrating radar is analyzed at various frequency range and vegetation biomass using the scattering model such as vector radiative transfer theory.
