Effects of Waveguide Modes on the Scattering of a Finite Tubular Cylinder.

Abstract

This thesis is a study of the back scattering of finite tubular cylinders with circular cross-sections and very thin conducting walls. Measurements of several scaled tubular cylinders were taken and the experimental results were compared to theoretical data and to previous results, respectively. This research is part of an ongoing project to investigate the resonant scattering characteristics of targets. The results are expected to find applications in target identification. Keywords include: Electromagnetic scattering; Waveguide mode; Finite tubular cylinder; and Backscattering cross section.
