  • Abstract
    A novel A-sandwich hybrid variable thickness radome design, based on optimised power reflection, is presented. The radome performance parameters are evaluated accurately by a 3D ray-tracing procedure in conjunction with the aperture integration method. This design is demonstrated to be a better choice when multiple performance parameters need to be satisfied simultaneously.
