摘要
This paper describes the theoretical simulations carried out with a model of the backscattering coefficient of crops, where the leaf geometry is represented by a curved rectangular dielectric sheet. A general formulation is introduced for the bistatic scattering cross section of the curved sheet, and numerical results based on this approach are compared with those obtained by considering disc shaped leaves.
