Diffraction of Plane Electromagnetic Waves by a Perfectly Conducting Cylindrical Lamina

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The diffraction of a plane electromagnetic wave by a perfectly conducting cylindrical lamina is solved for the case where the E vector is parallel to the generators of the lamina. Eigenfunction expansions for the interior and exterior diffracted field are employed. By application of the boundary conditions, the problem reduces to the solution of an infinite set of simultaneous equations for the diffracted field expansion coefficients. These equations are solved by numerical methods. Special attention has been paid to the long-wave scattering region. The scattered intensity in the far field and the total scattered power are studied.
