Abstract :
Metal plate reflectors often are used as calibration objects in RCS measurements. In this paper, three kinds of metal plate reflectors are taken into account, including circular, rectangular and triangular plate. The radar cross sections of them are computed by the physical optics method. At first, they are compared under the same specified condition. And then RCS characteristics of metal plate reflectors with a series of parameter changing are also analyzed. An accurate conclusion can be obtained about choosing an appropriate metal plate scaler in RCS measurement. And the results also can be efficiently used for RCS reduction.
