Abstract

This paper presents Radar Cross Section (RCS) measurements of different targets suitable for electromagnetic software comparison and validation. The targets have been designed, fabricated and measured at INTA to study different scattering mechanisms such as reflection and diffraction on curved surfaces and edges (truncated cone), reflection and diffraction on planar surfaces and straight wedges (triangular prism) or tip diffraction and travelling waves (conesphere). These measurements can be used as a valuable tool to validate and adjust the input parameters of electromagnetic prediction codes according to the requirements of the engineer.
