In this paper, we introduce a method of selection for the optimal transmission polarization of a W-band seeker through the extraction of the one-dimensional scattering center of a ground tank target. We calculated the surface scattering and edge scattering using the shooting and bouncing ray tracing method of the CST A-solver. Based on 4-channel RCS data, using the one-dimensional RELAX algorithm, which is a kind of spectral estimation technique, scattering centers of ground targets were extracted. According to the changes in the polarization state and look angle, we compared and analyzed the scattering center results. Through simulation, we verified that the scattering center results can be applied when feature vectors are used for target recognition.

In this paper, two-dimensional(2-D) Finite Difference Time Domain(FDTD) method using the domain decomposition method is proposed. We calculated the electromagnetic scattering field of a two dimensional rectangular Perfect Electric Conductor(PEC) structure using the 2-D FDTD method with Schur complement method as a domain decomposition method. Four domain decomposition and eight domain decomposition are applied for the analysis of the proposed structure. To validate the simulation results, the general 2-D FDTD algorithm for the total domain are applied to the same structure and the results show good agreement with the 2-D FDTD using the domain decomposition method.

In this paper, Electromagnetic scattering problem by a resistive strip grating with 2 dielectric layers on a ground plane according as resistivity of resistive strip, relative permittivity and thickness of dielectric layers, and incident angles of a electric wave is analyzed by applying the PMM (Point Matching Method) known as a numerical procedure. The scattered electromagnetic fields are expanded in a series of floquet mode functions. The boundary conditions are applied to obtain the unknown field coefficients and the resistive boundary condition is used for the relationship between the tangential electric field and the electric current density on the strip. According as the relative permittivity and the thickness of layers are increased, the values of the geometrically normalized reflected power have a high value and the values of strip width are moved toward a high value going from left to right. When the resistivity of this paper has a value of zero, the numerical results of the geometrically normalized reflected power show in good agreement with those by the PMM of existing paper. Then, the most energys of the sharp variation point in minimum values of the geometrically normalized reflected power are scattered in direction of the other angles except incident angle.

The scattering pattern, due to an E-Polarized wave incident on M circular parallel dielectric cylinders, is computed. The multiply-scattered fields between the cylinders are considered. Modeling of infinite cylindrical scatterer of arbitrary cross sections by a number of circular cylinders is executed. By enforcing the boundary conditions on the surface of each cylinder, an infinite set of equations is obtained. The first order of scattering results from the excitation of each cylinder by only the incident wave. The second order results from the excitation of each cylinder by the first order of scattering from the remaining cylinders, and so no to an infinite order of scattering. Although the resulting equation is of infinite size, proper truncation yields very accurate numerical results.

This paper presents a vector network analysis system for 2-port scattering parameters of microwave devices using some basic microwave instruments/devices such as signal generators, vector voltmeter, directional couplers and frequency mixers. The analytical model and implementation method for scattering parameter measurements - which can replace the vector network analyzers - are presented. The performance of the implemented system is evaluated through 1- and 2-port scattering parameter measurements, respectively. The vector volt signals which determine the scattering parameters are detected in two distinct methods depending on the frequency band of interests; a direct-detection method with a single signal generator and vector voltmeter for relatively low band and a heterodyne method to frequency down-mix associated with an additional signal source as well as frequency mixers for high band are used, respectively. Using these two methods, scattering parameters of UHF and X bands are evaluated and their performances are verified through a comercial vector network analyzer.

In this paper, we introduce a method of scattering centers extraction using the polarimetric data. VIRAF software based on the PO (Physical Optics) and PTD(Physical Theory of Diffraction) were used to calculate the surface scattering and the edge or wedge scattering, respectively. In addition, by using the unitary transformation, 4-channel data based on the linear polarization basis were converted to 2-channel data based on the left/vertical-circular polarization basis, leading to data compression coherently. The scattering mechanism was analyzed in terms of the polarization states and different look angles by using the scattering center of a target extracted by the 2D RELAX algorithm.

The input parameters of scattering models for computing the backscattering coefficients of earth terrains are mainly soil moisture and surface roughness. The backscattering coefficients of soil surfaces are more sensitive to surface roughness than soil moisture. In this study, we propose a precise measurement method for roughness parameters and analyze measurement errors. We measured surface roughness using a pin-board profiler(1 m, 0.5 cm interval) and a laser profiler(1 m, 0.25 cm interval). The measurement differences between two profilers in an average sense are 0.097 cm for root-mean-square (RMS) height and 1.828 cm for correlation length. The analysis of the correlation functions and relative errors shows that the laser measurements are more stable than the pin-board measurements. The differences of the calculated backscattering coefficients using a surface scattering model between pin-board and laser profiler measurements are less than 1 dB.

In order to form focused inverse synthetic aperture radar(ISAR) images of a non-uniformly rotating target, rotational motion compensation(RMC) should be performed. Prominent point processing(PPP), one of the most representative RMC methods, is used to compensate nonlinear rotation motion by exploiting the phase signals of scatterers. In this paper, we propose a new RMC method based on the integrated cubic phase function(ICPF). The ICPF requires only one-dimensional(1-D) maximization to estimate the phases of multi-component signals. Simulation results using a point scatterers model in the absence of dominant scatterers validate that PPP based on ICPF can achieve well-focused ISAR images in real time.

In this paper, electromagnetic scattering by a perfectly conducting strip grating on dielectric multilayers is analyzed for the normalized reflected and transmitted power by applying the Fourier-Galeakin moment method. The induced current density is expanded in a series of multiplication of chebyshev polynomials of the first kind and functions with appropriate edge boundary condition, the continuous condition of electromagnetic field is applied in the boundary planes. The confirm the validity of the proposed method, the nor- malized reflected and transmitted power obtained by varying the relative permittivity and thickness of each dielectric layers are evaluated and compared with those of the existing numerical method and a paper, and then the numerical results in this paper are in good agreement with those of the existing numerical method and the paper. The sharp variation position in the geometrically normalized reflected and transmitted power can be moved by the incident angle, grating period, and the relative permittivity and thickness of the dielectric multilayers, these sharp variation points which are called the Wood's anomaly of the Geome- trically normalized reflected power are observed as a main factor when the reflected powers of the higher order mode are transitted between propagating and evanescent modes, and the local minimum positions are slightly moved to the left hand direction in which grating period is getting small according to the increase of the relative permittivity of dielectric layers.
