Numerical Solutions to the Problems of Electromagnetic Radiation and Scattering by a Finite Hollow Cylinder.

Abstract

Numerical techniques for solutions to the problems of electromagnetic radiation and scattering are considered for a finite, hollow, circular cylinder of radius a. The singular-integral equations of electromagnetic scattering theory are derived along with their extensions to thin surfaces and surfaces with edges. In addition, constraints are presented which are necessary for a unique solution to the scattering problems of thin structures. The equations for a finite hollow cylinder are obtained by expanding the field quantities in Fourier series about the cylinder axis giving rise to a separate set of singular integral equations for each harmonic.
