Abstract
A theoretically comprehensive method is proposed for the determination of the RCS (radar cross section) of a general paraboloid of revolution utilizing the geodesic constant method (GCM). Analytical expressions are obtained for al the surface ray parameters required in the bistatic RCS computation in one-parameter form. The inclusion of the diffraction due to higher order geodesics in the analysis increases the accuracy of the theoretical RCS predictions.<>
