The Complete Electromagnetic Fields in the Focal Region of a Paraboloidal Reflector,

Abstract

By using the physical optics approximation we have developed a computer progrm to calculate the complete near field distribution of a paraboloid which is illuminated by a plane wave. This program is described and a number of results obtained with this program are presented, including some comparisons with known results for the fields in the focal plane. (Author)
