Abstract :
The transmission line modeling (TLM) method is applied to determine the radar cross section (RCS) of very thin conducting targets under critical illumination that are included in a benchmark of thin plates proposed by the Electromagnetic Code Consortium (EMCC) for validation of low-frequency electromagnetic computational codes
