Abstract
This document describes techniques and systems for enabling more-accurate single-point radar cross section (RCS) approaches for radar simulations without introducing orders of complexity. For automotive radar applications, considering variations in RCS radial patterns, with both angle and range, and because of analytically calculated multi-path effects and near-field RCS effects improves simulation accuracy by incorporating multi-path phenomenon that is present due to ground reflections. The described techniques are performed without using full scale ray-tracing or other computationally demanding techniques.
