“…Hence practical measurement is more applicable and effective than theoretical analysis to obtain the actual RCS of the chaff cloud. To measure the RCS of a large target in the millimeter band, many methods and measurement systems are proposed for the scale model measurement of RCS in the literature such as [5][6][7][8]. As the chaff cloud comprises metallic or metal-coated fibers [9], the mutual coupling and variable distribution of the spreading chaff cloud result in certain difficulty in obtaining an applicable scale model of the chaff cloud and deriving the data of the prototype from the measurement results of the models.…”

The Radar Cross Section (RCS) signature of the chaff cloud in the millimeter wave band is useful in many research fields such as radar countermeasure, target identification and discrimination, and so on. To obtain the RCS of the chaff cloud, practical measurement is an effective method. This paper introduces the design and implementation of a bistatic radar which is used for chaff cloud RCS measurement. The configuration of the radar system and the techniques used in this system, including oversampling, digital down conversion, coherent integration, and interpolation, are discussed. The infield experiment results are presented.
