Abstract

A numerical method is presented for the scattering by the perfectly conducting cylinder with arbitrary cross sections. The relevant integral equation considered by the E-field formulation is solved by method of moments, and thereby the surface current induced as well as the radar cross section of the scatterer are numerically computed to specify the scattering nature of the scatterer. Two separate methods, one with point matching and the other Galerkin's method, are considered to make cross checks to the results obtained. Taking two half pulses suggested to expand the surface current shows savings in computation time and accurate solutions for the corners on the scatterer.
