  • Abstract
    The paper discussed the atmospheric turbulence effect such as angle-of-arrival, signal-to-clutter and noise ratio for lognormal clutter and Weibull clutter and detection probability of ultrawideband pulse in radar system. The detection probability is degraded for short pulse and for more turbulence.
