Dataset of Spatial Objects Acquired using Romania's First Ground-Based Space Tracking Radar

Raw spatial-objects radar data is scarce and hard to obtain, obstructing simulations and making improvements to the processing pipeline rather difficult. We provide such a radar dataset of five spatial objects, acquired using the Romania's first spatial-object tracking radar, the Cheia Radar. The dataset contains the tracking of five different objects for a few minutes, using 125W transmitting power and a 2-channel 16-bit 100MSa/s ADC for the receiver end. The input conditions/TLE and the output data format are described; the digital processing pipeline used to extract relevant data is specified so that other researchers may easily use the dataset, which is available on Microsoft Sharepoint.
