Abstract
In this paper, measured results of RCS characteristics of a scale model rocket are obtained and are compared with the theoretical results. In order to determine the relation of received level unit [dBm] and the RCS unit [dBsm], circular disks are employed for calibration. Exact measurements method of RCS is confirmed.
