Abstract
In this study, the radar cross-section (RCS) of a large structure is analyzed using the linear bounding volume hierarchy (LBVH), which is a representative acceleration algorithm of the ray-tracing technique. A ray-tracing technique, which is a high-frequency method, is used to analyze the electromagnetic properties of large structures, and bounding volume hierarchy (BVH), a binary tree structure, is applied to reduce the intersection search time. The improvement in the calculation speed is quantitatively analyzed by dividing an arbitrary scatterer into several triangles. The calculation results are compared with those of multilevel fast multipole method (MLFMM) and ray-launching geometrical optics (RL-GO) using the Feko commercial software to verify the accuracy. The proposed technique can be utilized for the efficient RCS calculations of large structures.
