Overview Wind farm operators may be asked to pay licence fees for using data from one radar for mitigating the effects of their turbines on another radar. We discuss the [...]

Overview Many modern radar have in-built mitigation to reject the effects of wind turbines. This article considers the in-built design features that allow these radar to do this. Radar Radar [...]

Background Wind turbines can have a negative impact upon radar activity. As shown in the figure below wind turbines can show up on radars as storms. Their interference can be [...]

Background The noise pollution produced by a wind farm can become a problem for local communities, developers and sponsors. While for local communities the noise can have severe negative effects [...]

Introduction Wind turbine shadow flicker is the effect caused when a spinning turbine rotor causes brightness levels to vary within an affected room (although the precise definition can depend on [...]

Wind farms and radar Wind farm developments around the world face objections from radar operators. This is because large wind turbines can interact with radar signals, causing interference. Figure 1: [...]

Previous articles: Radar concerns have rendered two turbines motionless Aveillant technology to mitigate the effects of two wind turbines at East Midlands Airport Overview Three years in the making, the [...]

Introduction The Frodsham wind farm in Cheshire (UK) is one of the largest onshore wind developments in England (see Reference 1). The wind farm is located within range of the [...]

In Brief It is a zone where a radar ignores interference. When properly implemented interference is rejected whilst genuine targets (aircraft) are displayed. Non Auto Initiation Zones (NAIZs) are sometimes [...]

Pager Power has over a decade of experience dealing with and overcoming wind farm radar objections. Many potential mitigation techniques are available to overcome said objections however some solutions are [...]
