Abstract

In this paper, we discuss an application of range Doppler imaging to measurement of reflected wave intensity from a moving object without using an anechoic chamber. The wave intensity reflected from a metal plate moving in the horizontal direction toward the antenna is typically 40-50 dB higher than that in the case without using the plate, and the estimated radar cross sections for a metal plate and sphere show good agreement with the theoretical value. The measurement of wave absorption by the present method suggests that frequency characteristics of the observed reflection loss are in close agreement with those of the calculated loss. These results show the reliability of the present experimental system and suggest that the method is applicable to wave reflection measurement not in an anechoic chamber but in an ordinary laboratory room.
