Omnidirectional retroreflective surface using geodesic polyhedra

Omnidirectional retroreflective surface using geodesic polyhedra

In this paper, we present the design and analysis of omnidirectional retroreflective surfaces made of trihedral, corner reflectors to enhance the monostatic radar cross section of otherwise low back-scattering surfaces. The proposed designs can be mounted on helmets and used for various applications...
