Abstract:

The scattering by a number of perfectly conducting spheres has been calculated as a function of bistatic angle for both principal circular polarizations. Normalized radar cross section and scattering phase are tabulated for body circumference in wavelengths equal to 1.01.010.0, 15.05.050.0 with bistatic angles 0.01.0180.0 degrees. Selected graphs precede the tables
