“…So far many methods have been brought up to reduce antenna RCS, such as geometrical shaping [1], [2] and radar absorbing material (RAM) [3][4][5][6][7][8]. In the former case, the antenna can deflect the electromagnetic (EM) waves away from the detective direction, thus reducing RCS in specular directions.…”

“…Some methods are reported for RCS reduction of antennas, such as using fractal structure [3], modifying the antenna structure [4,5], and using bionics principle [6]. Frequency selective surface (FSS) [7], works well when reducing out-band RCS of antenna, but it doesn't fit for the case of in-band RCS reduction.…”

Abstract-In this paper, a new approach for the radar cross section (RCS) reduction of patch array antenna is proposed. Complementary split-ring resonators (CSRRs) are etched on the ground of the proposed patch antenna array. A conventional 1 × 4 patch antenna array is designed with the central frequency of 5.0 GHz. The monostatic RCS of the patch antenna array with CSRRs can be reduced as much as 14 dB compared to that of the conventional array while maintaining almost the same radiation characters. For the case of ϕ-polarized incident wave, the RCS has been reduced in the angular range of −90 • ≤ θ ≤ +90 • in xoz-plane and this angular range is usually less than ±45 • when using conventional methods of RCS reduction.

“…Radome technology [3,4] is used to protect the antenna and reduce the out-of-band RCS of the antenna. References [5,6] proposed a new method for antenna RCSR based on the bionics. In fact, this new method is still based on the shaping technology.…”

Abstract-Two different kinds of artificial magnetic conductors (AMCs) are used to reduce the out-ofband radar cross section (RCS) of microstrip patch antenna. The principle of this method is based on the high impedance characteristic of the AMC structures. The simulated results show that out-of-band RCS of the proposed patch antenna is much lower than that of the reference antenna over the frequency range of 5-12 GHz. The in-band scattering characteristic of the microstrip patch antenna is analyzed, and two slots are cut on the patch antenna to reduce in-band RCS. Prototypes of the reference and designed antennas are manufactured and tested, and the measured and simulated results of the two antennas are in good agreement.
