Abstract

The RCS of a composite target composed of two geometries, namely elliptical cylinder plus elliptical cone, is calculated and analyzed in this paper. To get the RCS for the target shape, the RCSs of both the elliptical cylinder and elliptical cone are calculated and analyzed before and after coating them with a designed metamaterial. Matlab and CST Simulator are used to evaluate the performance and prove the effectiveness of the metamaterial coating in reducing the RCS of the composite structure, using specially created metamaterials. This search lowered RCS across a wide frequency range of 2 to 400 GHz, which is done through specially designed metamaterials.
