Radar Signature

The capability of the first strike is crucial in the modern battlefield. An important parameter is the radar signature or Radar Cross Section (RCS) of a weapon system, such as a fighter aircraft, a warship, or a missile, affecting the range at which this weapon system would be detected as a target by an enemy radar. If the attacker is detected too late, there will be minimal time for the defender to react, possibly not sufficient to counter the threat. The RCS of a weapon system is considered generally as classified information. However, it can be measured at a suitable measurement test range, if that weapon system is available. Otherwise, it can be predicted with the help of computational electromagnetics. Concerning the second approach, the following procedure was recently proposed: construction of a three-dimensional model of a target, based on available images and any relevant data, and then computation of the target RCS, with the Physical Optics approximative method. In the present approach, this procedure is applied to an anti-ship cruise missile in order to compute its RCS. Finally, the expected detection range for various naval radars is calculated.

Enhancing the frequency band of the electromagnetic wave is regarded as an efficient way to solve the communication blackout problem. In this paper, frequency of incident wave is raised to Terahertz (THz) band and the radar cross section (RCS) of the three-dimensional conductive model is calculated and simulated based on the Runge–Kutta Exponential Time Differencing–Finite Difference Time Domain method (RKETD-FDTD). Interaction of THz wave and magnetized plasma sheath is discussed. Attenuations in incident wave frequencies of 0.34 THz and 3 GHz and different plasma densities are analyzed. The monostatic RCS is used to compare the penetration in different incident wave frequencies while the bistatic RCS is fixed on 0.34 THz to study its characteristics. The simulation result has almost the same RCS as that of the model without coating plasma when the frequency of incident wave reaches 0.34 THz. The advantages of THz wave at 0.34 THz on increasing RCS and reducing the attenuation are demonstrated from different aspects including polarizations, incident angles, magnetization and anisotropy of plasma, thickness of plasma, scan planes and inhomogeneous distribution of plasma. It can be concluded that 0.34 THz has unique advantages in increasing the radar cross section and can be applied to solve the problem of communication interruption.
