The strength of the radar reflections seen on Mercury are small compared to that which would occur with pure ice.
12.
Also radar reflections, both off Venus ( 1958 ) and off asteroids, like Icarus, have been used for solar parallax determination.
13.
The slope of the superstructure, designed to minimize direct radar reflection, was chosen using computer simulation of the radar cross section.
14.
Polarization is also important in the transmission of radar pulses and reception of radar reflections by the same or a different antenna.
15.
These inlets also crucially improve the aircraft's very-low-observable characteristics ( by eliminating radar reflections between the diverter and the aircraft's skin ).
16.
In October 2009, Vestas and QinetiQ claimed a successful test of a stealth wind turbine blade mitigating radar reflection problems for aviation.
17.
The luminosity and depolarization of the radar reflections are much more characteristic of ice than of the silicate rocks making up Mercury's crust.
18.
A target's RCS depends on its size, "'reflectivity "'of its surface, and the "'directivity "'of the radar reflection caused by the target's geometric shape.
19.
Only at the point of firing does a side bay door on the F-22 slide away and the missile pops out, generating a momentary radar reflection.
20.
Radar reflections are affected by the Doppler effect : reflections from a radially moving target are shifted in frequency; shorter wavelengths on the approach, longer when departing.
