CONT

MDV determines whether the majority of military traffic, which often moves very slowly, will be visible. To capture the majority of this traffic, a radar must have the ability to detect the lowest possible radial velocity. As a target's radial velocity approaches zero, the target will fall into the clutter or "blind zone. "The clutter spread is a function of a radar's antenna real bandwidth. When a target is in clutter, traditional MTI [moving target indicator] radars can either detect the target or locate it, but not both.

Ballistic tracking radar : ITT Gilfillan(...) revealed details of its new ARBAT range instrumentation radar for testing artillery and other projectiles.(...) ARBAT employs a 3 cm pulse-Doppler radar with an electronically-scanning planar array that acquires the projectile 60 msec after firing and can track it over 50 km(30 mi) down to 0. 5 ° above the horizon, by using advanced MTI clutter-rejection processing.
