Abstract :
It has been demonstrated that the high-frequency physical optics-based code CADDSCAT can utilize trimmed curved surfaces. Validations for canonical targets were presented. A significant potential savings in design person-hours and a reduction in design cycle time has been made possible. This, in turn, allows for more alternative, innovative designs
