摘要：
This paper presents a flying target for monostatic radar verification. It consists of a corner reflector mounted on an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). The main advantages of this configuration are the lower weight and wind resistance with respect to spheres having the same Radar Cross Section (RCS), leading to an enhanced overall operability. The UAV-mounted target has been tested with indoor and outdoor RCS measurements (X band). Predicted and experimental data are in good agreement.
