Doppler Features from Wind Turbine Scattering in the Presence of Ground

Progress In Electromagnetics Research Letters, Vol. 35, 1-10, 2012
Abstract
We study the Doppler features of electromagnetic scattering from a wind turbine with rotating blades in the presence of ground. Image theory in conjunction with a shooting-and-bouncing ray code, Ahilo, is used to carry out the dynamic signature simulation. The observed features in the simulation are corroborated with laboratory measurements. In addition, the Doppler features from a wind turbine in the presence of a moving ground is simulated and analyzed.
