Scan rate selection has a crucial impact on theperformance of maritime surveillance systems. In this work, asea clutter database has been used to obtain experimentalinsight on the trade-off between within-scan and scan-to-scanintegration. This paper extends previous empirical studies tothe case of sub-meter range resolution Ka-band coherent seaclutterdata. Results show a clear performance improvement forfaster scan rates provided that the number of coherentlyintegrated samples is high enough.
