KW - RADAR KW - AERONAUTICA KW - RADAR CROSS SECTIONS N1 - Includes bibliographical references and index N2 - Radar cross section (RCS) is a comparison of two radar signal strengths. One is the strength of the radar beam sweeping over a target, the other is the strength of the reflected echo sensed by the receiver. This book shows how the RCS gauge can be predicted for theoretical objects and how it can be measured for real targets. Predicting RCS is not easy, even for simple objects like spheres or cylinders, but ER -
