摘要: This paper discusses a procedure to measure the radar cross section (RCS) of small boats at 94 GHz. It describes simple and moderately low cost set hardware that was used perform these measurements. Results include polar patterns made from peak RCS each angle probability density functions characterise distribution RCS. In case largest boat, 41 ft fly-bridge cruiser, it possible process high resolution range profile data identify positions larger scatterers. Analysis measured for all craft shows linear relationship between median non-metallic their physical cross-section when viewed side on
