Calculate Radar Cross Section (RCS) Of Complex Objects in MATLAB by using POFACETS GUI
This software has been developed by David C. Jenn. POFACETS operates on Physical Optics (PO) approximation for predicting the RCSs of complex objects. It utilizes the scientific computational features of MATLAB and its graphical-user-interface (GUI) functions to provide an efficient calculation of RCS. In this study, we use the latest and updated version (4.2 released in 2015) of POFACETS. The…

Difference between Monostatic Radar and Bistatic Radar
Monostatic Radar When both transmitting and receiving antennas are placed close to each other in one radar station at the same location for the detection of an object is known as monostatic radar. There is only one radar, containing the same Tx and Rx antenna located on the ground for the detection of an aircraft’s.…

Difference between RADAR and Radar Range Equation
RADAR RADAR stands for RAdio Detecting And Ranging and as indicated by the name, it is based on the use of radio waves. Radars send out electromagnetic waves. The signals are sent out as short pulses which may be reflected by objects in their path, in part reflecting back to the radar. This concept is…

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) Overview in a simple way
In the recent years, the demand for higher data rate services such as multimedia, voice, and data traffic over both wired and wireless links increased tremendously with the advancement of information and communication technology. To transfer a large amount of data required new modulation techniques which were not supported by the existing 3rd generation (3G) schemes such as CDMA…
