The Impact of Vertical Structures on Ship Radar Cross Section in the High Frequency Range

The monostatic and bistatic Radar Cross Section (RCS) of various complex ship targets are numerically simulated in the High Frequency range of 3- 20 MHz. The process by which these complex ship models are built and simulated using the FEKO code is described. Validation of the simulated RCS against f...

Zusammenfassung:The monostatic and bistatic Radar Cross Section (RCS) of various complex ship targets are numerically simulated in the High Frequency range of 3- 20 MHz. The process by which these complex ship models are built and simulated using the FEKO code is described. Validation of the simulated RCS against fullscale measurements is described. Details are added to the ship model and the changes in the bistatic RCS are explored. Bistatic data from the simulations are used to assess the performance of a pair of surface-wave radar stations operated in a bistatic mode. The results of these findings will be of importance to future RCS simulation work using numerical modelling.
