Abstract
The problem of diffraction H—polarized plane waves by an ideally conducting infinite cylinder—has been investigated. The numerical experiments, based on solving integral equations by the method of auxiliary spline currents, show that it is possible to reduce the integral radar cross section of the cylinder by modulating its directrix. There is evidence of similarity between the results obtained and a well-known natural phenomenon.
