Radar Cross Section#

class RadarCrossSectionModel[source]#

Bases: ABC

Base class for spatial radar cross section models.

abstract get_cross_section(impinging_direction, emerging_direction)[source]#

Query the model’s cross section.

Parameters:

impinging_direction (Direction) – Direction from which a far-field source impinges onto the cross section model.
emerging_direction (Direction) – Direction in which the scatter wave leaves the cross section model.

Return type:

float

Returns: The assumed cross section in \(m^2\).
