✦ Synopsis


Compact-range radar backscatter measurements are taken of aircraft scale models. In addition, computer software is used to predict the RCS of the aircraft. Synthetic down-range profiles formed from the two sources of backscatter data are compared and ¨isualized in an inno¨ati¨e manner. Similar discrimination rates between the two aircraft are obtained on data from both sources.
