Terahertz Radome Inspection
Radomes protecting sensitive radar, navigational, and communications equipment of, e.g., aircraft, are strongly exposed to the environment and have to withstand harsh weather conditions and potential impacts. Besides their significance to the structural integrity of the radomes, it is often crucial to optimize the composite structures for best possible radio performance. Hence, there exists a s...
متن کاملDamage and defect inspection with terahertz waves
We present recent results in applying pulsed and continuous-wave (CW) terahertz (THz) imaging and sensing techniques on damage and defect assessment in insulating foam and carbon fiber materials. The comparison between the optical inspections versus the THz image of the defects in the foam shows a very good agreement. For the carbon fiber samples, both THz imaging at 0.6 THz and time-domain dat...
متن کاملError Compensation for Radome Measurements
Geometries for measuring radome characteristics can usually be split into two categories. The first category always has the antenna inside the radome pointing along the range axis. The second category has the antenna maintaining a fixed relationship with respect to the radome during each scan of data. A facility can generally be designed to minimize measurement errors in one of the two geometri...
متن کاملFast Multilayer Radome Computation with Gaussian Beams
We propose a technique to compute the effect of a dielectric multilayer radome. This technique uses a gaussian beam expansion associated with an evaluation of the physical optics spectral integrals using the asymptotic steepest descent path method. Then, we compare an iterative and a global process to take into account the multiple reflections inside the radome. Finally, a numeric validation is...
متن کاملObservability Analysis on Radome Aberration Estimation
The observability of radome aberration estimation with line-of-sight (LOS) angle-only measurement is studied in this paper. When missile seeker can only measure LOS angle of target, target state variables are required to be estimated with this measurement for accurate missile guidance. Since LOS angle measurement contains error, caused by radome attached at missile nose and called radome aberra...
