Abstract

The theoretical and experimental research results of radar targets statistical characteristics at X- ad Ka-bands are presented. Data on radar cross-sections (RCS) for different targets including air, land, and marine targets are presented and the comparison of experimental results with theoretical models is done. The probability distributions of the signal instantaneous values, amplitudes, and RCS for different types of targets are obtained and the comparison of experimental distributions with standard Swerling's models is performed. The experimental results of power spectra investigations for different targets are discussed. For small marine targets the correlation between target radar spectra and sea surface spectra is determined.
