Abstract
A series of radar cross-section measurements has been performed on flat base dielectric cones. Curves are presented showing radar cross section as a function of 1) cone size (angle constant) and 2) cone angle (diameter constant). A curve for a thin (0.07λ) conical dielectric shell as a function of circumference/wavelength ratio is also shown. The data are compared to that for metal cones.
