Abstract :
This paper describes how to synthesize a tapered resistive grid that produces a desired backscattering pattern. The grid consists of equally spaced, equal width strips. Each strip has a resistivity that is found by using a genetic algorithm. Physical optics is used to calculate the backscattering. The results are compared with the method of moments calculations
