MENU: '''Tools &rarr; Propagation Wizards &rarr; Basic Radar'''
 
MODULE(S): [[EM.Terrano]]
 
FUNCTION: Creates a parameterized monostatic radar scene with a collocated point transmitter and receiver and a point scatterer at a certain range
 
NOTES, SPECIAL CASES OR EXCEPTIONS: The user can determine the locations of both the radar (transmitter and receiver) and the target. The user can also import a radiation pattern for the radar antenna and rotate the antenna arbitrarily. By default, a 20dB Y-polarized pyramidal horn antenna pointing along the X-axis is assumed. The target is assumed to be a PEC sphere of 1m radius. The user can change the attributes of the target scatterer group from within the wizard including its material composition, or alternatively import either polarimetric scattering matrix or RCS data.

== Mobile Path Wizard ==
ICON: [[File:mountain_iconMobile Path icon.png]]
MENU: '''Tools &rarr; Propagation Wizards &rarr; Mobile Path'''
FUNCTION: Creates a mobile path of transmitters or receivers in the project workspace
NOTES, SPECIAL CASES OR EXCEPTIONS: This wizard creates either a set of transmitters or a set of receivers along a specified path. The path can be specified in one of three different ways: (a) using an existing "virtual" nodal curve, i.e. a polyline or a NURBS curve, whose nodes define the base locations, (b) using an existing "virtual" line object by specifying the number of base location points, and (c) using an existing spatial Cartesian data file, which specifies the coordinates of the base location points. The Mobile Path Wizard provides a list of all the nodal curves or line objects that have been defined as virtual objects in the project workspace.
