The singular value decomposition (SVD) enhanced improved ultrawideband characteristic basis function method (IUCBFM) is proposed to efficiently analyze the wideband scattering problems. In the conventional IUCBFM, the SVD is only applied to reduce the linear dependency among the characteristic basis functions (CBFs) due to the overestimation of incident plane waves. However, the increase in the size of the targets under analysis will require a large number of incident plane waves and it will become very time-consuming to solve such numbers of the matrix equation. In this paper, the excitation matrix is compressed by using the SVD in order to reduce both the number of matrix equation solutions and the number of CBFs compared with the traditional IUCBFM. Furthermore, the dimensions of the reduced matrix and the reduced matrix filling time are significantly reduced. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed method is accurate and efficient.

A broadband radar cross section (RCS) calculation approach is proposed based on the characteristic basis function method (CBFM). In the proposed approach, the desired arbitrary frequency band is adaptively divided into multiple subband in consideration of the characteristic basis functions (CBFs) number, which can reduce the universal characteristic basis functions (UCBFs) numbers after singular value decomposition (SVD) procedure at lower subfrequency band. Then, the desired RCS data can be obtained by splicing the RCS data in each subfrequency band. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed method achieve a high accuracy and efficiency over a wide frequency range.

In this paper, a merged ultra-wideband characteristic basis function method (MUCBFM) is presented for high-precision analysis of wideband scattering problems. Unlike existing singular value decomposition (SVD) enhanced improved ultra-wideband characteristic basis function method (SVD-IUCBFM), the MUCBFM reduces the number of characteristic basis functions (CBFs) necessary to express a current distribution. This reduction is achieved by combining primary CBFs (PCBFs) with the secondary level CBFs (SCBFs) to form a single merged ultra-wideband characteristic basis function (MUCBF). As the MUCBF incorporates the effects of PCBFs and SCBFs, the accuracy does not change significantly compared to that obtained by the SVD-IUCBFM. Furthermore, the efficiencies of constructing the CBFs and filling the reduced matrix are improved. Numerical examples verify and demonstrate that the proposed method is credible both in terms of accuracy and efficiency.

Solving inverse scattering problems by numerical methods requires investigating the number of independent pieces of information that can be reconstructed stably. To this end, we address the evaluation of the Number of Degrees of Freedom (NDF) of far-zone scattered fields for some strip geometries under the first-order Born approximation. The analysis is performed by employing the Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) of the scattering operator in the two-dimensional scalar geometry of one or more strips illuminated by a TM polarized plane wave. It is known that investigating the scattering scene at different incident plane waves (multi-view configuration) enhances the NDF. Therefore we mean to examine the minimum number of incident plane waves providing the NDF of the scattered fields both by theoretical estimations and numerical verifications.
