Abstract

Aim To calculate the RCS of trihedral corner reflectors and improve the typical arithmetic of SBR. Methods The method of shooting and bouncing rays was used to calculate the RCS and stokes' theorem was used to improve the arithmetic. Results The validity of the new method was proved with some computation examples. Conclusion SBR can be successfully used in the analysis of trihedral corner reflectors, the improved arithmetic enhances the speed of calculation greatly.
