Scalloping is a radar phenomenon that reduces sensitivity for certain distance and velocity combinations.
The name is derived from the appearance of areas that are scooped out of graphs that indicate radar sensitivity.
Moving objects cause a phase-shift within the transmit pulse that produces signal cancellation. This phenomenon also has detrimental effect on moving target indicator systems, where the detection scheme subtracts signals received from two or more transmit pulses.
PulseWidth}}\right)} Scalloping occurs at 150 km/s for an L-band radar with a 1 microsecond pulse. Inter-pulse radarscalloping involves two types of...
