Investigations into the behaviour of radome materials
Abstract
An analysis of radome material behavior based on thin-film analogy and on nonuniform linear-array analogy is carried out. In the first case, the computed results indicate waviness of the power reflection and transmission coefficients. It is found that the results of the two methods compare well with each other and also with those by Leaderman and Turner (1948). The use of the results in the design of radome wall thickness is considered. Experimental work is also reported.
