[TC-26update] Recent Activities of TC-26: Radar Cross-Section Measurements

This TC is the only one that is devoted to radar related measurements in the I&M Society. The Radar Cross-Section Measurements (RCS) committee has people from industry and academia. It is worth mentioning that detailed RCS measurements are now possible at the Advanced Radar Research Center (ARRC) at the University of Oklahoma (OU) for both on-campus groups and off-campus groups. My research partners at OU have worked to develop the specifications of two anechoic chambers at the University of Oklahoma (note: a special thanks to Dr. Jessica Ruyle). The most exciting recent development for OU´s radar program is the construction of the Radar Innovations Laboratory (RIL) building, which is located adjacent to the National Weather Center and was completed in March of 2014. Temporary visitor offices are available in the RIL to external people wishing to complete collaborative experiments. For example, NASA has plans to visit to complete some low-frequency phased-array antenna measurements.
