Abstract
A compact closed-form formula for the RCS of a perfectly conducting right dihedral corner reflector at arbitrary aspect angles is presented. The approach is based on a combination of ray tracing, physical optics (PO), and the physical theory of diffraction (PTD). There is good agreement between the results obtained using the closed-form formula and those obtained by the shooting and bouncing rays (SBR) technique
