Electromagnetic Scattering from Parallel Perfect Electromagnetic Conductor Cylinders of Circular Cross-Sections Using an Iterative Procedure

Abstract

Electromagnetic scattering from an array of parallel perfect electromagnetic conductor (PEMC) circular cylinders, illuminated by a TM _z plane wave, is investigated using an iterative procedure. Both the near and far fields, due to any number of interactions between the cylinders, may be determined. The technique applies the boundary conditions on the surface of each cylinder in an iterative procedure in order to solve for the field expansion coefficients. Numerical verifications are presented to prove the validity of the derived results and the numerical code, by comparison with the published literature for perfect electric conductor cylinders.
