摘要

A new method is proposed to analytically evaluate the line integral on truncated-wedge incremental length diffraction coefficients (TW-ILDCs). By utilizing the coherence of a geometry, the trailing edges can be divided into several linear segments, and the line integrals can be reduced as the two end-point contributions for each segment based on the mathematical model derived in this paper. Thus, the efficiency is greatly enhanced in comparison with the traditional numerical techniques. Numerical results for the bistatic radar cross sections show excellent performance of the proposed method both in accuracy and efficiency.
