TE-SCATTERING FROM A CONDUCTING STRIP LOADED BY A DIELECTRIC CYLINDER.

The problem considered is that of determining the current induced on, and the field scattered by, a two-dimensional, flat, perfectly electrically conducting strip which is edge loaded by a dielectric cylinder of circular cross-section. The strip is oriented radially with respect to the center of the cylinder and can be located outside, inside, or partially inside and partially outside the cylinder. The structure is excited by a plane wave polarized transverse electric to the cylinder axis. A system of two coupled integro-differential equations is derived for the current density on the strip in the presence of the cylinder, and is solved numerically by the method of moments. A series acceleration technique is employed to improve the convergence of the series incorporated in the kernels of the integral equations.
