Abstract

In order to investigate the influence of multi-radiators, active scattering characteristics, which can be reflected by the active radar cross section (ARCS), are investigated by incorporating the multi-radiators with the radar-radiator. The proposed implementation takes advantage of the ARCS concept in terms of considerable accuracy and close to reality especially in the complex electromagnetic environment. The metal sphere model is analyzed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed implementation. Several procedures are employed during the investigation. The ARCS of the metal sphere model is compared with its radar cross section with a single radar-radiator. The frequency characteristic of the ARCS for a metal sphere model with multi-radiators is calculated. The changes in the ARCS with different phases, field intensities, field polarization directions are given. An example is given to illustrate the change in the maximum detection range caused by multi-radiators. Through the results, it can be concluded that the active scattering characteristics of the metal sphere model can be significantly influenced by the multi-radiators.
