Radar Cross Section for Multi-Layered Rectangular & Circular Objects
Abstract
In this work, we have proposed a method to estimate the radar cross section of a multilayer rectangular and circular slab with arbitrary thickness, dielectric constant, conductivity for all frequency range. Radar cross section is expressed as a function of internal field produced on each separate layer. Internal electric field is analytically obtained using boundary conditions at each layer and represents the amplitude, phase and polarization of the scattered wave in the far field. The multi-layer estimation of radar cross section is verified using results for a single layered slab and experimental data from various literature. The model can further be used in modeling of radar cross section of landscape and nature where each different region such as vegetation, desert or clouds would be modeled with different permittivity and thickness to obtain the radar cross section.
