Abstract
The impact of wind turbines on radar systems is of increasing concern. This paper addresses the problem of the offshore wind farm and presents a methodology used to model the interference of wind turbines with pulsed marine navigational radar. It will show the ability to model some of the main issues such as; target spreading, sidelobe detection and the appearance of ghost targets. A comparison between the results from the model and measured data taken near the North Hoyle wind farm in North Wales, UK is provided.
