This paper presents the analysis of car modeling designed by using CST software with the concept of forward-scatter radar (FSR) which exploits the enhanced bistatic radar cross-section of a target in the forward direction. FSR has the potential to reliably detect and track vehicles with high sensitivity. FSR offers interesting feature such as an enhanced target radar cross section compared to traditional radar. A method to obtain 3-dimensional Computer-Aided Design (CAD) models is presented. The effects of radiation pattern on radar cross-section from the modeling are presented. The differences of RCS for different angles and frequencies are analyzed. The comparison of forward-scatter and back-scatter are being discussed.
