Design of a super-directive scatterer
Methods to reduce radar cross section have been extensively studied for military applications. By reducing their radar signature, planes and ships can be invisible to enemy radar. Deceiving can be done by not just hiding. Actual objects can also be presented as a much bigger target on the radar. A s...
