Abstract :
A technique is described for measuring the RCS of 2D (two-dimensional) diffracting sources. The measured and predicted diffraction RCS of a conducting halfplane edge and a gap in an otherwise infinite conducting plane are presented. The technique may be used to measure the diffraction coefficient of an impedance discontinuity
