Security and surveillance regions of the Unitary Republic of Indonesia, which consists of over 17,000 islands with 2/3 the area consists of oceans will require apparatus and equipment amounted to very large. Indonesia also has one of the world's largest beach with a length of more than 80,000 km. In fact, the ability of the Navy and Police to oversee the Indonesian area is so limited. One way to improve the ability of government officials in monitoring and securing the area is by using radar to monitor the movement of Coast Guard ships so as to prevent actions that may harm the Republic of Indonesia and also when the ship was about to crash into the harbor dock. Radar Installation Coastguard great power (high power) on the side of the boat or land (around the coast) can be used to monitor a wide sea area up to several tens of nautical miles. Coastal surveillance radar ISRA used to detect an object such as marine vessels operating in Indonesian waters. The detected object can be known of its kind on the basis of information obtained by the radar of the characteristics of the object. In radar, a target is characterized by its Radar Cross Section (RCS) function. RCS estimation and calibration for the radar is a very important aspect for the accurate estimation of target information. Radar Cross Section through the estimated size of the object can be detected. RCS calculation is one of the most important part of the radar signal processing for object detection. The theory of the RCS is presented as a basis for the calculation of the RCS. Simulation using MATLAB for Radar Cross Section (RCS) has been carried out along with the results obtained from the simulation.
