Radômes en matériaux composites
Radomes made of composite material
1 Ingénieurs Civils, Sous-Direction Aéronautique, DCAN Toulon
Abstract
It is often necessary to interpose a device between a radar antenna and the ambiant medium. This so called radome device is the abreviation of the words radar and dome. It is designed to avoid perturbations on the electromagnetic fields radiated by the antenna and to withstand thermal and mechanical forces induced by the medium. The electrical and mechanical properties of some composite materials allow their use for radomes fabrication.
This paper gives a sketch of works carried out on this field by the french army's DCAN Toulon (Sous-Direction Aéronautique) which has designed and realised 2,500 radomes for naval and aeronautical antennas including nose airborne radomes for Mirage III, F1 and Mirage 2000.
