Abstract

In this paper, the GMT-PO hybrid method accompanying with the iterative technique is applied successfully to calculate 3-D diffraction coefficients(3D-NDC) of the irregular cone edge. The computed RCS (backward NDC) of a finite cone with regular top is in good agreement with the measured data from the reference.
