Description:
This session will explore cutting-edge research and applications in Over-the-Horizon Radar (OTHR), addressing both surface-wave and sky-wave systems. It aims to bring together experts in radar engineering, ionospheric science, and signal processing to discuss challenges, innovations, and future directions.

Key Topics:

1. Surface-Wave and Sky-Wave Radar Systems
2. Ionospheric Modeling and Prediction
3. HF Radio Wave Propagation and Space Weather Effects
4. Advanced Signal Processing and Clutter Mitigation
5. Antenna Design and Array Technologies for HF Radar
6. Machine Learning and AI for OTHR Performance Enhancement
7. Data Fusion and Integration with Other Sensors
8. Operational Applications: Arctic Surveillance, Maritime Domain Awareness
