Abstract
Results of extensive radar cross section (RCS) measurements on cubes of different sizes over a wide frequency range are presented. Diagrams are presented which show contours of constant RCS return, and thereby the return at any frequency and aspect angle can be noted. The measured data have been used as baseline data in verifying computed results using GTD (geometrical theory of diffraction), finite-difference-time-domain (FDTD) and numerical electromagnetic code (NEC) algorithms.<>
