CST Enhances Radar Cross-Section Simulation Capabilities

Computer Simulation Technology (CST) is exhibiting new features for radar cross-section (RCS) simulation in the upcoming version of CST STUDIO SUITE 2015 at European Microwave Week, which runs from October 7 to 9.

The 2015 release expands the RCS capabilities by adding the ability to produce RCS maps with the shooting and bouncing ray asymptotic solver. These maps allow engineers a more detailed view of a platform’s cross-section to help identify potential scatterers.

Also added to CST STUIDO SUITE 2015 is support for angle and frequency-dependent radar absorbing material coatings.

“RCS is a significant application for our software,” said Martin Timm, marketing director, CST. “The new features in CST STUDIO SUITE 2015 build on over a decade of experience of RCS simulation, and will help engineers be able to analyze the cross-section of platforms more accurately and more effectively.”
