Monte Carlo Simulation of the Echo Signals from Low-Flying Targets for Airborne Radar

الملخص EN

A demonstrated hybrid method based on the combination of half-space physical optics method (PO), graphical-electromagnetic computing (GRECO), and Monte Carlo method on echo signals from low-flying targets based on actual environment for airborne radar is presented in this paper.

The half-space physical optics method , combined with the graphical-electromagnetic computing (GRECO) method to eliminate the shadow regions quickly and rebuild the target automatically, is employed to calculate the radar cross section (RCS) of the conductive targets in half space fast and accurately.

The direct echo is computed based on the radar equation.

The reflected paths from sea or ground surface cause multipath effects.

In order to accurately obtain the echo signals, the phase factors are modified for fluctuations in multipath, and the statistical average value of the echo signals is obtained using the Monte Carlo method.

A typical simulation is performed, and the numerical results show the accuracy of the proposed method.
