Suppression of Undesired Reflection Using a Spatial Filtering on Bistatic Radar Cross Section Measurements within a Near Zone

Spatial filtering is a useful method to suppress undesired reflection from unwanted scatters in Radar Cross Section (RCS) measurements. Actually, it is difficult to prepare an ideal field which satisfies the far-field criterion for RCS measurements of large targets. We applied the filtering method to a bistatic RCS measurement in a near field and investigated the validity of that method by varying the scanning angular span. Electromagnetic simulations show that predicted RCS profiles from near-field data with unwanted scatters closely matched far-field reference data of the test target. In conclusion, the results show that the method is effective for bistatic RCS measurements in practical field enviroments.
