Calibration methods for wideband forward RCS measurements
Författare
Summary, in English
Calibration is an important part in all radar cross
section measurements. Two different approaches to the calibration
of forward and extinction cross section measurements are
therefore evaluated and discussed in this paper. The first method
is the commonly used calibration method employing a calibration
target with a known cross section while the second calibration
method does not require a calibration target. It is concluded that
the method utilizing a calibration target is the most accurate
method of the two.
