Abstract

A modified Paris´ model (Paris, 1970) for computed-aided radome analysis is presented, which takes into account the dielectric material anisotropy of the radome layers. The analytical model is combined with a practically realized two-resonator method for characterization of the normal and parallel to the surface dielectric parameters of the radome layers. Finally, several examples are given, which illustrate the steps for introduction of appropriate radome models of reinforced and composite radome structures with anisotropy, which accurate represent all the layers formed in the practical radome construction - cores, skins, irregular epoxy glue fillets, protective coatings, etc.
