N2 - The need for measurements of the radar cross section for electrically large targets has recently grown. Target radar cross section measurements can be made using the far-field test, compact-field test, or near-field test, respectively. The scattering characteristics can be measured or predicted using these three approaches for common targets, but not for electrically large objects. Hence, in this research, a terahertz scaled equivalent far-field test technique is investigated to realize the equivalent far-field test by lowering the far-field condition. Also, the scale-model of the trihedral corner reflector is measured using the terahertz frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) test system. A good agreement is discovered between the trihedral corner reflector measurement findings and modeling results. The method's viability and accuracy are confirmed.
