In this study, we propose a radar cross-section (RCS) prediction method for a cluster of multiple targets that combines radar images of a single target. In characterizing an object or a target measured by radar, RCS is an essential physical parameter of the target. The importance of radar technology, such as automotive radar systems for collision avoidance, has continuously grown in recent years, and the demand for RCS measurement and prediction is expected to increase accordingly. As RCS is defined in the far field of a target, direct RCS measurement of an electrically large object in spatially limited indoor facilities is usually infeasible. Therefore, several near-field-to-far-field transformation (NFFFT) techniques have been developed to overcome this limitation. Moreover, RCS measurement of a cluster of multiple targets is required for certain situations. In such cases, in addition to the abovementioned spatial limitation, the cost of manufacturing multiple test objects and repeating similar experiments for different arrangements of the targets must be taken into account. To deal with these problems, we utilize the NFFFT technique based on synthetic aperture radar (SAR) or inverse SAR (ISAR) imaging. First, we measure the backscattering of a single target in the near-field distance and reconstruct the radar image from the measured data. Second, multiple images are created by rotating and transforming the original image such that the target is located at the desired positions. Finally, the created images are coherently synthesized, and the RCS is computed from the synthesized image. Numerical electromagnetic simulations based on the method of moments are used for validating the proposed method. |
