Abstract
A radome may include a core and an outer dielectric constant (ODC) adaptation component overlying an outer surface of the core. The radome may have an effective dielectric constant variation profile from an outer surface of the ODC adaptation component, through the ODC adaptation component to an outer surface of the core. The effective dielectric constant variation profile of the ODC adaptation component may be a continuous monotonic function DC(ot), where DC(ot) is the dielectric constant of the ODC adaptation component at the value ot, where ot is a ratio OTL/OTT, OTL is a location within the ODC variation component measured from the outer surface of the ODC variation component, and OTT is the total thickness of the ODC adaptation.
