Abstract

In this paper, the scattering principium of airborne phased array antenna is discussed, and the antenna mode RCS of the two-dimensional array is estimated. Based on theoretical calculations, broadband matching, incline, manufacturing tolerances and other RCS reduction measures are researched. The results show that these stealth approaches have an obviously effect on the RCS reduction.
