Composite Electromagnetic Scattering from the Plate Target Above a One-Dimensional Sea Surface: Taking the Diffraction into Account
By
Progress In Electromagnetics Research, Vol. 92, 317-331, 2009
Abstract
The properties of composite electromagnetic scattering from a square conducting plate target above a one-dimensional sea surface are discussed with the diffraction of plate edge taken into account. The characteristics of electromagnetic scattering from the sea surface are investigated based on the Kirchhoff Approximation (KA). The backscattering field of a plate target is calculated with the method of higher equivalent edge currents. Besides, the method of equivalent edge currents (MEC), Physical Optics (PO) approximation and the reciprocity theorem method are combined to calculate the composite scattering field from the conducting plate target above a sea surface. The effect of the plate size, inclination, edge diffraction and the frequency of incident wave on the composite scattering field is analyzed.
