Abstract
High-frequency scattering of a plane wave by a finite conducting, rectangular cylinder is treated by geometrical diffraction theory. Formulas appropriate for calculating principal-polarisation radar cross-sections as a function of frequency and azimuth aspect angle are presented. Calculations on a short cylinder are in very good agreement with monostatic measurements.
