Dash, T.K. (author), Gîrdianu, Alexandru (author), Krasnov, O.A. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)At the airports, fast-scanning phased array radars are used to detect point-like targets, e.g., birds and drones. However, these radars do not possess Doppler processing and thus are not used for observation of the weather targets like precipitation events. A series of steps need to be performed, such as beamforming in elevation, target masking...conference paper 2023

Kladogenis, Chrysovalantis (author), Driessen, J.N. (author), Krasnov, O.A. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)Wind turbines usually cause significant interference in the conventional radar operations which might degrade the detection capabilities. Wind turbines do not only block the radar beam focusing on a specific target, thus creating shadowing effects, but also impose Doppler spectra contamination due to the continuous blade rotation.
