Abstract

The "Radar Fence" is a bistatic multi frequency radar system. Based on the principles of frequency coding, time coding and space diversity we detect and characterize objects and geophysical phenomena. The system\´s capability is illustrated with results from detection of internal wave wake produced by a submerged vehicle. and aircraft identification
