Abstract:

In this volume, a summary of the basic formulation associated with higher order terms in the theory associated with Uniform Theory of Diffraction UTD scattering from structures is presented. Theoretical solutions for bistatic first order and higher order UTD terms, which provide an accurate and efficient means of calculating high frequency scattering from large complex geometries, are discussed. These techniques are eventually incorporated into the user-oriented computer code referred to as the RCS Basic Scattering Code BSC
