摘要：
Large target's Radar Cross Section (RCS) estimation using scaling model is a common method to obtain RCS at the development phase. However, according to classical electromagnetic similarity theory, measurement of scaled target coated with microwave absorbing material is difficult to meet the scaling condition strictly. A multivariate logarithmic linear regression model is proposed to estimate RCS for the scaled target coated with microwave absorbing materials. Two sets of cylindrical models were designed and tested in the microwave anechoic chamber with scaling factors of 1:1, 1:2, 1:4 and 1:8, respectively. On the basis of data preprocessing such as angle correction, RCS data of scaling model is substituted into the model as training set to obtain parameters, and RCS of the original model is estimated and compared with the actual measured data. The results show that the curves of the predicted data and the measured data fit well. Compared with the traditional square rate formula, the error of the proposed method decreases by 3-5 dB, and the error decreases by 0.3-0.8 dB after adding the microwave absorbing material factor to the regression model. © 2021, Editorial Board of JBUAA.
