Calculation of the Radii of Curvature of Short-Wavelength Electromagnetic Waves after Specular Reflection from Simple Shape Conductors.

Abstract

Deschamp's matrix relations for the curvature of short-wavelength electromagnetic rays when specularly reflected from smooth conducting surfaces are reviewed and applications of these relations to double-bounce radar cross section estimation are discussed. (Author)
