CW Measurements of Right Circular Cones

Abstract

The measured backscattering characteristics of two metallic right circular cones, with and without absorbing pads on their bases, are shown in 328 patterns. The absorber pads were used to reduce second order diffraction across the base of the cones. Measurements were carried out at closely spaced frequencies from 8.0 to 12.0 GHz, for both horizontal and vertical polarizations, using a CW cancellation method.
