Abstract

This paper analyzes electromagnetic scattering by a parallel-plate waveguide cavity whose internal region is partially loaded with materials and conducting plates. The radar cross section is investigated in terms of the loaded materials. The characteristics of cavity resonance are classified and thoroughly investigated. The numerical technique used is the point-matching method together with the edge condition for a conducting enclosure.
