We aim to enhance the capability of remote sensing process through calculating the accuracy of the laser radar cross section (LRCS) in different levels of fluctuated media. In this regard, we present a study on the effects of turbulence on LRCS of conducting objects such as aircraft with different sizes. Consequently, sensed or measured LRCS can be adjusted. We pursue this through the calculation of the backscattering enhancement factor. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 56:2406–2411, 2014
