Both E and H polarizations are treated. The WH solution for the rectangular cavity and the RHP solution for the circular cavity involve numerical inversion of matrix equations. Since both methods take into account the edge condition explicitly, the convergence of the WH and RHP solutions is rapid and the final results are valid over a broad frequency range. Illustrative numerical examples on the monostatic and bistatic RCS are presented for various physical parameters and the far field scattering characteristics are discussed in detail. It is shown that the double-layer lossy material loading inside the cavities leads to the significant RCS reduction.EnglishWiener-Hopf techniqueRiemann-Hilbert problem techniqueScattering and diffractionRadar cross sectionRectangular cavityCircular cavityA comparative study of RCS predictions of canonical rectangular and circular cavities with double-layer material coatingArticle1745-1353
