Abstract
A procedure is presented for predicting by computer the radiation pattern of an antenna in the presence of a radome. The case of a horn antenna radiating through an actual aircraft radome is treated in detail, and a comparison is made between computed and measured antenna patterns. Good agreement between theory and experiment is noted.

Hybrid PO-MoM analysis of large axi-symmetric radomes

TL;DR: In this paper, a hybrid physical optics-method of moments (PO-MoM) technique is presented for accurate and efficient analysis of electrically large radomes, which combines the method of moments for modeling the tip region of the dielectric radome and ray optics in conjunction with physical optics for treating the flatter smooth section of the radome.

Complex ray analysis of beam transmission through two-dimensional radomes

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a complex ray tracing method to trace complex ray fields from the complex source point through the complex extension of the radome configuration to the real location of the observer.

Radiation Patterns and Boresight Error of a Microwave Antenna Enclosed in an Axially Symmetric Dielectric Shell

TL;DR: In this article, the boresight error and radiation patterns of a microwave antenna in an axially symmetric dielectric shell of ogival contour were measured and an approximation based on induction and equivalence theorems was used for calculation of radiation patterns.

Digital computer analysis of aperture antennas

TL;DR: Digital computer predictions of aperture antenna patterns are shown to be far more complete, in terms of information concerning the field vectors over virtually unrestricted angular sectors and even at short distances, when vector rather than scalar diffraction theory is applied.
