Diffraction of a plane electromagnetic wave by a two-layer finite array of small bodies of revolution

详细

A three-dimensional vector problem of plane-wave diffraction by a two-layer finite array of perfectly conducting bodies of revolution is considered. The problem is solved under the assumption that the sizes of the elements of the array are small as compared to the wavelength. The approach proposed was tested by comparing the far-field patterns of an array with a small number of elements, calculated by two different methods. Angular dependences of the far-field patterns of arrays of elements in the form of spheres, oblate spheroids, and superellipsoids of revolution are constructed. Dependences of the plane-wave reflection and transmission coefficients on the angle of incidence for single-row finite and infinite arrays are presented.
