Abstract :
A description of the RAT SCAT cross-section facility is reported along with test results indicating measurement capabilities. The facility is described in terms of location, type of range, type of measurements, and the equipment complement. Measurement capabilities are presented in terms of vehicle dimensions and weight, relative to criteria such as system background, vehicle support background, nonplanar fields, and instrumentation and calibration errors.
