An efficient technique for extracting singularity arising in RCS computation of cylindrical antenna

Analysis of electromagnetic scattering characteristics from wire antennas using method of moments has been performed over the past decades. In this paper, an efficient technique is adopted to evaluate the potential and reaction integrals arising in radar cross section (RCS) computation of cylindrical antenna by method of moments. The singularity of potential and reaction integrals is extracted through the semi-analytical method. The induced current on the surface and RCS of cylindrical antenna are calculated. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the computational accuracy and efficiency of the proposed technique.
