Abstract :
Indoor Radar Cross Section measurement facilities are usually dedicated to the characterization of only one azimuth cut and one elevation cut of the full spherical RCS target pattern. To provide a full function of the roll angle and the azimuth angle, an indoor near field monostatic RCS layout has been developed at CEA, consisting in a spherical experimental layout. From the acquired raw data, signal processing and data fusion techniques provide a 3D map of the main scatterers.
