Summary:
It is realized on very important element to avoid detection by enemy's radar in the modern war. Specially, it is very important for submarine, the core power of the naval forces, to reduce possibility to be detected. In this paper, introduce method to decrease RCS (Radar Cross Section) of periscope and snorkel to use RAM (Radar Absorbing Materials). Electromagnetic modeling of periscope and snorkel which have possibility to be easily detected in the sea was performed in X-band (8~12 GHz) used mainly by surveillance radar to simulate and we designed RAM to apply to it as electromagnetic wave absorber application and then made simple mock-up of it(periscope and snorkel), finally measured RCS before-and -after of RAM application to it at anechoic chamber and. analyzed the result of RAM application effect.
