Abstract

Example embodiments relate to systems, apparatus, and methods for determining a characteristic of a radome. An example apparatus may comprise a computing device configured to cause a first radar signal to be transmitted toward an object and to receive first radar data representative of a first reflected radar signal. The computing device may also be configured to determine a first parameter associated with the first reflected radar signal based on at least the first radar data and to cause a second radar signal to be transmitted toward the object after a fluid is applied to the radome. Further, the computing device may be configured to receive second radar data representative of a second reflected radar signal, determine a second parameter associated with the second reflected radar signal based on at least the second radar data, and compare the first parameter to the second parameter.
