  • Abstract
    A shipboard electromagnetic interference (EMI) problem is considered. The use of radar absorbent material (RAM) to reduce unintentional X-band (8-12 GHz) radar reflections from HF wire rope antennas is analyzed. An exact series solution for a lossy-coated circular cylinder was developed and used to determine the effectiveness of the various RAM coatings
