What Does OTHB Stand For?

OTHB stands for Over The Horizon Backscatter

OTHB, or Over The Horizon Backscatter, is a remote sensing technique used to detect and track objects beyond the horizon by analyzing radio waves that are scattered back to the Earth’s surface. This method leverages the reflection of signals off the ionosphere, enabling surveillance and monitoring over vast distances. OTHB is particularly valuable in military and maritime applications, providing real-time situational awareness and enhancing safety and security operations.
