Research abstract
An effective missile defense requires an understanding of the combined radar signature of a hard body and plume or wake and a capability of predicting that signature. The proposed program will enhance software which is designed to fully couple hard body Radar Cross Section (RCS) calculations from software designed for this purpose with plume/wake RCS calculations from software designed for that purpose.The coupling software is designed around the CrossFlux method and is contained within a user oriented graphical user interface called Embleck.Enhancements to software design, extended applications to reentry and more extensive verification and validation will provide a state-of-the-art computational tool that can be utilized by radar system analysts.
