Abstract

A method, based on the conjugate gradient method using the fast Fourier transform, to compute the bistatic radar cross section (RCS) is presented. This method allows to treat 3D structures composed by several layers of materials which arbitrary dielectric and magnetic constants different from free space including materials with losses.
