| Abstract |
This paper proposes a new method that reduces RCS(rader cross section) of the aluminum plate using a oscillation system composed of a VGA(variable gain amplifier) and a phase shifter. Once the oscillation system receives the external-RF signal through a probe on aluminum plate, it makes an amplified signal with a specific phase to cancel the signal reflected from the aluminum plate. The signal transmitted from the oscillation system has the same amplitude and out of phase with the reflected signal. And it can be controlled by the VGA and the phase shifter in the oscillation system. In order to validate the performance of the proposed oscillation system, FEM simulator was used and we measured how much an amplitude of the signal reflected from the aluminum plate rotated in phi direction is reduced in an anechoic chamber. |
