Abstract

To meet the varying requirements of radar cross section (RCS) enhancement or reduction for aircraft in different scenarios, a simulation study is conducted on a reconfigurable printed antenna with RCS reconfigurable characteristics based on bistable glass fiber material. This antenna achieves two hollow cylindrical configurations by toggling the states of the bistable glass fiber material. Simulation results indicate that the antenna exhibits excellent RCS reconfigurability within the operating frequency range. Under orthogonal incident waves, there is a significant difference in the bistatic RCS between the two antenna configurations, reaching a maximum value of over 20 dB.The investigated antenna operates in the band of 0.93-1.95 GHz and features a simple structure and flexible switching capabilities. It can adapt its antenna configurations according to practical application needs, presenting promising prospects for diverse applications.
