Abstract

Wide‐band scattering properties of typical spin stabilized satellite and triaxial stabilized satellite are computed by using finite‐difference time‐domain (FDTD) in this study. Compacts of the attitudes on scattering properties are investigated. The results show the change of rolling attitude more easily arouses the variety of scattering characteristic of satellite target than pitch attitude change does. The calculation results may be helpful to the wide band radar for detecting, identifying, and tracking of the satellite targets. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
