Abstract

ABSTRACT
The reduction of radar signature by textile fabric treated with iron oxide powder suspended in shellac solution is investigated. In this study, iron oxide was added with known concentration in shellac solution and mixed until homogeneity. The prepared textile fabric was treated with the previous solution and tested by microwave reflectometer to measure the reduction in reflected radar power and also the reduction of radar signature. The results of these measurements were recorded.
