Compared with the traditional Z-buffer technique, the improved one can record not only the illuminated surface of the body, but also the information about the shadowed part. So multi-scattering and RCS of cavity can be calculated. The second advantage of it is using dual representation, of the target's facet surface, in which the illuminated part is treated as bicubic patches for RCS calculation, and is simplified to flat facet when ray tracing is done.
