Radar Cross Section (RCS) Testing

Radar Cross Section (RCS) is the electromagnetic signature of an object. It is the reflection of radar signals back to a radar source that determines to what degree the object is detectable. Significant in defense applications, RCS testing enhances the stealth performance of low-observable aircraft.

Radar Cross Section (RCS) Testing

Meeting radar signature design objectives

RCS measurements are essential for evaluating and minimizing the radar signature of objects where low observability is required. This process focuses on reducing reflections from structural components such as wings, fuselage, engines, and other surfaces.

MVG offers a selection of RCS measurement solutions designed to meet the needs of both R&D and production line, supporting a variety of test setups such as outdoor near-field and far-field ranges, as well as indoor configurations including tapered chambers, compact antenna ranges, and plane wave generators.
