This dataset generated by the UCL NetRAD radar system is presented to enable comparative analysis of amplitude and Doppler spectra statistics from monostatic and bistatic sea clutter data at S-band. These data cover a range of bistatic angles from 60° to 120° and include simultaneous monostatic and co-polarised and cross-polarised bistatic recordings, providing direct comparison of their statistical properties.The time series of amplitude data are fitted to the compound K and K + noise distribution in the range domain and in the Doppler domain, and the variation of the shape parameter is presented for monostatic and co-polarised and cross-polarised bistatic data as an indication of the spikiness of the clutter. Analysis of data within this dataset is presented within this paper:Fioranelli, F., Ritchie, M., Griffiths, H., Sandenbergh, S. and Inggs, M.
