Radar cross section of long wires
Abstract
Using a continuous wave (CW) Doppler radar at 60 GHz, the radar cross sections of long metallic rods were measured. The results show linear increase with growing distance between radar and rods. A new expression for the radar cross section, which was also derived, demonstrates good agreement with the measured data.
