This paper discusses about the findings of a radar cross section (RCS) study of human at 76-77 GHz based on full-wave numerical model simulations. The trade-off between simulation accuracy and computation efficiency is discussed. In general, simulating full-body scattering at 76-77 GHz requires a fairly large computation resource (memory and CPU time) due to the large size of average human in terms of wavelength as well as many different geometries of different body parts. Measurement RCS pattern is included to verify the accuracy of the simulation model. This study may provide clues to develop unique radar signatures of pedestrian at 76-77 GHz.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
