IEEE Antennas and Propagation Magazine, 2008 A novel FDTD-based virtual radar cross section (RCS) prediction tool is introduced. Characteristic examples using simple three-dimensional structures, as well as more-realistic complex air and surface targets, are presented. The virtual tool automatically constructs a wire-grid model of the structure under investigation.

Reduction of the radar cross section of arbitrarily shaped cavity structures [PDF]
The problem of the reduction of the radar cross section (RCS) of open-ended cavities was studied. The issues investigated were reduction through lossy coating materials on the inner cavity wall and reduction through shaping of the cavity.

Using a Kernel Adatron for Object Classification with RCS Data
, 2010 Rapid identification of object from radar cross section (RCS) signals is important for many space and military applications. This identification is a problem in pattern recognition which either neural networks or support vector machines should prove to ...

Radar cross section (RCS) simulation for wind turbines
, 2013 Wind-turbine power provides energy-independence and greenhouse-gas reduction benefits, but if wind turbines are built near military and commercial radar and communication installations, they can cause degradation in the systems performance. The purpose of this research is to study the radar cross section (RCS) of a wind turbine and assess its effect on

A full-scale static radar cross-section (RCS) measurement facility
, 2007 We present an overview of a full-scale static RCS near-field measurement facility, and some sample measurements. The measurements, and the target, are in the near-field RCS range. Corrections for distance are made using sophisticated software.
