“…To validate the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed parallel higher-order basis MoM methodology, two benchmarks of a truncated cone and a Y-8 plane are simulated to calculate their RCS, respectively. [7]. This benchmark is an end-capped truncated cone oriented along the z-axis and centred in the plane z = 0 (illustrated in Figure 5).…”

A Message-Passing Interface (MPI) parallel implementation of an integral equation solver that uses the Method of Moments (MoM) with higher-order basis functions has been proposed to compute the Radar Cross-Section (RCS) of various targets. The block-partitioned scheme for the large dense MoM matrix is designed to achieve excellent load balance and high parallel efficiency. Some numerical results demonstrate that higher-order basis in this parallelized scheme is more efficient than the conventional RWG method and able to efficiently analyze RCS of various electrically large platforms.

“…To assess the accuracy of our implementation of the SBR algorithm, various canonical objects, whose RCS has been either analytically calculated or is numerically well documented in the literature [26,27], are chosen. Our simulator is tested with these benchmark objects for different look angles and frequencies.…”

Abstract:In this paper, we present a new simulator called pRediCS for the calculation of electromagnetic scattering and radar cross-section (RCS) from electrically large and complex targets. The simulator utilizes the geometric optics (GO) theory and launching of electromagnetic rays for tracing and calculating the electric field values as the electromagnetic waves bounce around the target. The physical optics (PO) theory is also exploited to calculate the final scattered electric field by calculating the far-field PO integration along the observation direction. The simulator is first tested with known objects of canonical shapes, whose analytical solutions are available in the literature. Next, our implemented GO-POtype algorithm is validated by simulating the benchmark targets that have been well studied and documented by various studies. Finally, the RCS computation from complex and electrically large objects is calculated. By utilizing the RCS values for different frequencies and aspects, a successful inverse synthetic aperture radar image of the target with fast simulation time is achieved.
