Abstract :
A modeling and calculation method for the RCS of complicated satellite targets is given in this paper, and the method is applied in the calculation of cube and cylinder with perfect conductor characteristic. Finally, the paper gives the instance of calculation to satellite target´s RCS, and contrasts the result between satellite with metal and satellite with multi-layer material. We get the conclusion that the method adopted in the paper can simulate the message of dielectric surface and effectively and fleetly solve the problem of multi-layer material for complicated targets.
