Abstract
Many radar cross section (RCS) prediction codes are limited to one monostatic return per run. However, such codes can calculate multiple bistatic returns per incident angle for a relatively small amount of additional computer resources. This article describes a method of using bistatic returns to generate multiple monostatic predictions for each incident angle computed. Typical results are presented, and show that the accuracy is initially high, and then degrades as the separation angle between the incident and viewing angles becomes large.>
