Abstract
Current inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) testing techniques for large targets have a need for significantly big spaces. More specifically, the testing is done in anechoic chambers. This comes at a cost of a significant amount of money and space used. One way to overcome this issue is to scale everything proportionally. This entails scaling the size of the target down and using proportionally higher electromagnetic (Emag) frequencies since Maxwell’s equations are invariant under dilation transformation [1]. The research pertaining to this subject will be utilized for recreating a 2-dimensional ISAR image for testing purposes using NIR light.
