How to Predict Scattering and Range Profiles using Complex Targets with Cavities

How to predict the scattering and range profiles using complex targets with cavities is investigated by using the hybrid finite element-boundary integral-multilevel fast multipole algorithm (FE-BI-MLFMA). A double-check criterion is presented for validating the reliability of FE-BI-MLFMA. The accuracy of both amplitude and phase of the scattering field using the complex target is emphatically validated based on the criterion. The range profiles of a typical target-cylinder with cavity-are investigated with the validated FE-BI-MLFMA.
