X-Band Radar Cross-Section of Tandem Helicopter Based on Dynamic Analysis Approach
1School of Aeronautic Science and Engineering, Beihang University, Beijing 100191, China.
Abstract:
In order to study the radar signature of a tandem helicopter in the X-band, a dynamic analysis approach (DAA) is presented to determine its radar cross-section (RCS) under different influence factors. The basic passage time, rotation speed, observation angle, rotor disk inclination, fuselage attitude angle and Doppler feature are studied and discussed in detail. The results show that the dynamic characteristics of the rotor RCS will bring significant changes to the peak and average values of the helicopter RCS. Within a given observation angle range, a larger elevation angle is undesirable for helicopter stealth. The inclination of the rotor disc will affect the many small peaks and local fluctuations of the helicopter RCS. The positively increased attitude angle will have an undesirable effect on the average RCS and dynamic characteristics of the helicopter. The DAA is feasible and effective for studying the radar cross-section of a tandem helicopter.
