NUMERICAL SOLUTION OF ELECTROMAGNETIC SCATTERING PROBLEMS

Abstract

The purpose of the work is to describe a theoretical formulation, including a documented computer program, for the evaluation of electromagnetic scattering by perfectly conducting bodies having an axis of rotational symmetry. The main body of the work gives the theory, which has been modified considerably from that given earlier. Appendix 1 gives the analysis and logic which forms the basis for the various subroutines of the computer program. Appendix 2 gives the complete FORTRAN listings of the computer program. Finally, Appendix 3 gives the computer printout for a numerical example, scattering by a conducting sphere-cone-sphere obstacle, as obtained on the IBM 7030 digital computer.
