Abstract :
In aerospace industry, the importance of RCS in the aerospace industry. State the purpose of the comparative study and analysis of various geometries contributing to RCS prediction. Analyze how changes in frequency affect RCS and discuss the relationship between radar range and RCS. MATLAB to create models of different geometries. Outline the parameters studied (e.g., frequency of operations, radar range) and the tools used for simulation (e.g., MATLAB). This research paper describe design features that minimize RCS (e.g., absorbent paint, smooth surfaces) and list and describe the different geometries analyzed in the study. The software tools used (e.g., MATLAB, commercial RCS simulation software). Use MATLAB’s plotting functions to visualize the results and analyze the variation of RCS and visual aids to demonstrate the variation of RCS with different parameters.

Key-Words / Index Term :
