The Joint United States-Canadian Obscuration Analysis for
Smokes in Snow, also know as Smoke Week XI, was conducted
from February 20, 1989, through March 10, 1989, at the
Defense Research Establishment in Valcartier, Canada. The
purpose of the exercise was to evaluate the performance
of variety of sensors under simulated hostile battlefield
environments. These environments include extreme cold,
falling snow, and a variety of smoke obscurants over snow-
covered terrain. Military vehicles including a Leopard
Tank and Armored Personnel Carriers (APCs) were used as
targets, as well as a number of corner reflector and
dihedral test targets on a fully instrumented test site.
This report presents detailed results of the analysis
performed on the data collected during Smoke Week XI by
the Rockwell Instruments Millimeterwave System (RIMS)
operating at 94 GHz. Measurements of snow attenuation,
smoke attenuation, snow backscatter, and multipath
reflection coefficient were taken at near zero degree
grazing angle. The effects of smoke and snow on high
range resolution profiles of a Leopard Tank and an M113
APC are also presented. Results are compared to other
published results where available.
