  • Abstract
    The similarity parameter between two scattering matrices is introduced. This parameter is not only independent of the spans of the scattering matrices, but also independent of the target orientation angles. From the definition of this parameter, we derive the parameters of similarities to the scattering matrices of a plate (sphere), a diplane, a wire and two helixes, which are very convenient for analyzing the characteristics of a radar target
