Abstract

In this paper, a novel approximate solution for scattering by a very thin planar homogeneous dielectric scatterer with an arbitrary shape is formulated. This solution is based on a volumetric integral equation and is expressed in terms of Fourier transform. It is shown that the obtained solution is reduced to an exact solution for an infinite dielectric slab. For 2D, or 3D scatterers, the formulation is verified numerically. Especially fur edge-on TM polarized wave incidence a closed-form solution of backscattering from a thin dielectric half-plane is formulated, which is very accurate for wide range of normalized surface impedance except very low impedances(│η│〈0.5).

본 논문에서 얇은 균질 유전체의 산란해석을 위한 근사식이 유도된다. 이 해는 volumetric integral equation을 바탕으로 Fourier transform형식으로 나타내어진다. 얇은 무한 평면구조에서는 구한 식은 정확한 해로 떨어지며 다른 2D 또는 3D 구조에 대해서는 수치해석 결과와 비교하여 구한 식의 유용성을 보였다. 특히 TM파가 edge-on 방향으로 입사할 경우 반 무한 평면 구조에서의 산란에 대한 closed-form식을 구했다. 구한 식은 넓은 범위의 유전률에 대해 정확한 결과를 예측한다.
