  • Abstract
    This paper focuses on the electromagnetic modeling of time-variant scattering effects of wind turbines using a ray tracing approach. The results clearly demonstrate that a static model, as used in many previous reports, is not enough to capture possible interference effects. The simulation results are also supported by measurement data, which have been taken in a real wind turbine environment of a radar system.
