Commercial Drones Radar Cross Section characterisation at 24 GHz with a Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave Radar

The Radar Cross Section (RCS) of commercial micro and mini drones was characterized with a Commercial- Of-The-Shelf (COTS) Radar, using Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) waveforms, operating at 24 GHz. This paper presents a synthesis of measurements and some statistical inferences aimed to verify the correspondence of experimental densities with those ones of theoretical models.
