Radar cross-section of damped cylinders and dielectric strips
Abstract
This report presents 2D RCS (echo width) calculations for electrically and magnetically conducting circular cylinders with and without an electromagnetically damping coat. Similar calculations for dielectric cylinders and thin dielectric strips are also given. In all cases, results computed by our new TDFD code and transformed to the frequency domain are compared and overlaid with calculations performed directly in the frequency domain. Detailed preliminary documentation of the TDFD RCS code is given.
