Two Solution Techniques for the Problem of Diffraction of a Plane Wave by a Revolution Body Located in a Dielectric Half-Space

Resumo

Two techniques for calculation of the problem of diffraction of a plane wave by a dielectric revolution body located in a homogeneous dielectric half-space are suggested. The case, in which the permittivity of the medium inside the body is the coordinate function independent of the angular coordinate in the cylindrical coordinate system, is considered. When the first technique is used (in the case of a homogeneous medium of the body), the discrepancy of the boundary condition on the contour of the axial section of the body is constructed. Two methods are compared using the example of the problem of the plane wave scattering by a homogeneous sphere and circular cylinder of finite dimensions that are located in a half-space. The results of calculation of the field scattering pattern are presented for the case of diffraction by a finite circular cylinder having variable material characteristics.
