POLARIZATION-DEPENDENCE IN THE PERFORMANCE OF A GROUND PLANE CROSS SECTION RANGE
Abstract
The ground plane range, used successfully for antenna pattern measurements, has been proposed as a technique for radar cross section measurement. While this approach offers recognized advantages, certain features with respect to polarization behavior warrant further study. A brief analytical examination of polarization effects was made, and it was accompanied by experimental studies upon a Ka-band CW radar cross section range which confirmed the analytical predictions.
