Abstract :
It is shown that the physical optics approximation, enhanced by correction terms, makes it possible to compute the RCS (radar cross section) of the cone-sphere for arbitrary angle of incidence. The validity of the method is established by comparing it with a numerically rigorous method of moments solution.<>
