Scattering from rough plates
The radar cross section (RCS) of rough rectangular plates was studied using Monte Carlo simulations with the method of moments (MM) and physical optics (PO), and by computing the mean power pattern. For both the MM and PO based simulations a plate in the xy plane is represented by a collection of sm...
