ARC24 — A double-arch positioner for bistatic RCS measurements with four degrees of freedom
Bistatic RCS measurements are complex and time-demanding due to the different measurement dimensions. In cases, where target characterization requires a large amount of bistatic angle pairs, automated measurement facilities are demanded, that cover large spatial dimensions. This paper presents a positioning system for overcoming some of the typical limitations and makes the procedure of measuring bistatic RCS measurements more automated and cost-effective.
