ASSESSING RADAR ALTIMETER ACCURACY UNDER DIFFICULT CIRCUMSTANCES

The performance of radar altimeters is significantly influenced by environmental factors, particularly in challenging conditions. These conditions can include severe weather events, atmospheric disturbances, and high wind speeds. Such harsh environments can severely degrade radar altimeter accuracy, leading to potential errors in altitude measureme

Radar altimeters employ electromagnetic signals to measure the distance between the instrument and a ground. This principle allows for high-precision height measurement, making radar altimeters invaluable in various domains. High-Resolution measurements are achieved through the analysis of the time delay between transmitted and received waves. By
