A study on backscatter field reduction of the curved aluminum plate using active cancellation circuit

This paper propose a method to reduce the backscatter field of the curved aluminum plate using the cancellation system. The cancellation circuit is composed of a circulator, a LNA(Low Noise Amplifier), a VGA(Variable Gain Amplifier) and two phase shifters. Prior to experiment, we performed simulations to confirm the possibility using FDTD(Finite Difference Time Domain) simulator. We confirmed that the backscatter field could be reduced by the cancellation circuit when we changed the appropriate gain and phase. Finally, we performed an experiment to verify the performance of the cancellation circuit.
