Contents

In this paper, the exact solution for the electromagnetic field diffracted by a perfectly conducting elliptic cone is determined. The solution is presented in the form of a dyadic Green's function which is the most general form of solution. It is used the spheroconal coordinate system where the elliptic cone is one of the coordinate surfaces.

Results will be shown for the first main contributed eigenvalues and eigenfunctions and for the far zone field in some special cases.

Übersicht

In dieser Arbeit wird die exakte Lösung für das elektromagnetische Feld, das durch einen perfekt leitenden elliptischen Kegel gebeugt wird, angegeben. Die Lösung wird in der Gestalt der dualen Greenschen Funktion dargestellt, welche die allgemeine Form der Lösung ist. Es wird das sphärisch-konisches Koordinatensystem gebraucht, wobei der elliptische Kegel eine Koordinatenfläche ist.

Es werden Ergebnisse für die ersten am meisten beitragenden Eigenwerte und Eigenfunktionen, als auch für das Feld der entfernten Zone, angegeben.
