Exploring the Basics: Radar Noise and Its Suppression in SkySim

Radar systems are highly sensitive to external signals, and while this sensitivity allows them to detect targets at great distances, it also makes them vulnerable to noise. Noise, in radar terminology, refers to unwanted signals that interfere with the radar's ability to detect legitimate targets. These unwanted signals can come from various sources, such as thermal emissions, electronic interference, and atmospheric conditions.
