Abstract

We present an investigation of the use of a repeatable wave tank experiment to replicate maritime conditions for the measurement of electromagnetic scattering at sub-THz frequencies. The goal is to use the experiment in the development of marine radar detection algorithms by detecting anomalies in the returns from the waves. This experimental technique can also be used for situations where experimental measurements are logistically challenging. The data obtained from the wave tank experiments are presented. We present a method of digitally recreating the wave profile for simulation purposes. We also present results for a simple anomaly detection algorithm to demonstrate the type of algorithms that can be applied to the data, and the direction of future wave tank experiments.
