A MODEL FOR PREDICTION OF THE ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERACTION WITH THE WAKE OF RE-ENTRY BODIES
Abstract
The laminar wake of a re-entry vehicle is simulated by a system of cylindrical plasma shells. The radar cross-section per unit length is found, taking into account the energy losses due to collisions. Numerical results await completion of a computer program.
