DESCRIPTION:Join us for an afternoon Seminar on Radar Clutter presented by 
 AESS Distinguished Lecturer Luke Rosenberg.\nThis hybrid meeting will be i
 n-person at the Lockheed Martin Syracuse Conference Center and online via 
 WebEx.\nWhile in-person participation is limited to US Citizens\, anyone i
 s welcome to join virtually!\n\nClutter and the need to detect targets in 
 clutter is a significant part of radar design. The development of methods 
 to model clutter and CFAR detection schemes for targets in clutter are sti
 ll at the forefront of radar research\, as evidenced by the numbers of pap
 ers on these topics in the radar journals and at the radar conferences. Mo
 dels of clutter are only of value if they can be used in practice for the 
 development of real radar systems. This seminar will help attendees to und
 erstand the impact of clutter on radar design and performance\, and how to
  use clutter models to develop better designs. This insight is relevant no
 t only to radar systems engineers but also to those responsible for specif
 ying and procuring new radar systems for operational use.\n\nThe first par
 t of the seminar will introduce the methods used to describe radar clutter
  and show how physical and empirical models are developed. The second part
  will describe how clutter models are used in different ways to predict an
 d analyse the performance of radar systems in the various stages of the li
 fe cycle of a radar system. The tutorial will particularly emphasise the m
 odelling of sea clutter and it use in the design and development of airbor
 ne maritime surveillance radars. The third part of the tutorial will descr
 ibe how clutter models are used to develop realistic simulations of radar 
 signals. Finally\, the prediction of performance using the radar range equ
 ation and the various statistical models of clutter will be described for 
 both non-coherent and coherent radar detection processing.\n\nCo-sponsored
