High performance large sandwich radomes operating in more than one frequency band

In the design of large sandwich radomes, scattering effects from the seams play an important role. To obtain high performance, scattering from the seams must be reduced and the seam geometry optimised. The authors present data which show that dual band tuning of the seams is feasible. They also show how an increase in geometrical randomness makes the scattering effect from the seams more uniform
