A study of electromagnetic energy propagation through manipulated multilayer materials

This paper will discuss a basic electromagnetic analysis of multilayer material used in a radome application. The purpose of this work is to investigate a possible new configuration for environmental coverings used over antennas. The discussion will be based on theoretical analysis and computer simulations with real world applications. The data obtained from this effort will be used in the selection of new missile seeker system parameters and radar design. The effects of the research could reduce manufacturing costs and create new design concepts. The results could also affect the combination of modes in seeker design used to achieve its mission.
