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. | |
