THE SCATTERING OF ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVES BY PERFECTLY REFLECTING OBJECTS OF COMPLEX SHAPE.
Abstract
The research was devided into three areas. First, a theoretical and numerical analysis was made to determine the radar cross-section of a perfectly-conducting cone of finite height. Rigorous electromagnetic theory was used in the solution. The incomplete results obtained are compared with experimental and asymptotic theoretical results obtained elsewhere. The second area of research involved an introductory investigation of methods of reducing the radar cross-section of a body by the use of reactive elements. The third area was concerned with an investigation of methods of reducing the radar cross-section of an object by appropriately shaping the object. This investigation was carried out by the use of a novel numerical method. (Author)
