Monostatic and Bistatic HF Radar Cross Section Analysis of Large Vessels Using FEKO

摘要

Monostatic and bistatic Radar Cross Sections (RCS) of Canadian Coast Guard Ship Teleost and cargo-container vessel named Bonn Express are simulated using FEKO commercial electromagnetic simulation software. A good agreement is achieved between the simulated values and the measured values supplied by DRDC Ottawa, at the radar frequency of 4.1 MHz. With confidence in these FEKO models, the effect of pitch, roll and freighter loading was then investigated to account for such practical situations in oceanic environments.
