Synopsis

This book presents a complex mathematical formula to demonstrate a unique relationship between scalar and electromagnetic diffraction problems concerning a perfectly reflecting half plane with variable azimuthal angular orientations. The author begins with scalar wave propagation problems in which the half-plane's edge is excited by a ring source and extends to electromagnetic problems in which the propagation can be excited by sources with either longitudinal electric or magnetic current orientations. In addition, the author deep dives into the challenges in converting scalar solutions into vector solutions. The significance of this work is that it provides a comprehensive theoretical framework for understanding the diffraction of electromagnetic waves by perfectly conducting half-planes, which has important applications in antenna, radar, and microwave engineering.
