Multi-angle Time domain planar near-field scattering measurements

Time domain planar near-field scattering measurements can obtain the wideband scattering data in one measurement. This paper concerns simulation of time domain near field scattering measurements. This time domain measuring method is based on plane wave spectrum formulas. The near-field scattering measurement data are transformed to far-field scattering data such as Radar Cross Section (RCS). The formulas of this method, derivation of the formulas, the simulation method, the simulation results and analysis are presented in this paper.
