In this paper, the glint effect of maritime target to a radar system was analyzed by simulation and field test with a barge and corner reflectors. From the experiment, we proposed a glint measurement method of a real maritime target and it was indicated that the glint effect between the simulation results and real measurement is similar. Also it was founded that the glint effect is related to the relative amount of RCS(Radar Cross Section) difference among major scattering point and minor scattering points. Finally, the experiment showed the glint effects of the rotating barge with some different combinations of scattering points.
