  • Abstract
    Time-harmonic electromagnetic wave diffraction by a perfectly electrically conducting (PEC) finite rotationally symmetric surface located in free space is investigated. The problem is split to independent azimuth orders and reduced to the sets of coupled hypersingular and singular integral equations (IEs) for the surface current components. These IEs are discretized by the Nystrom-type method of discrete singularities using the interpolation type quadrature formulas. From the solutions of corresponding matrix equations the near- and the far-field patterns are obtained. The presented method has guaranteed convergence for arbitrary not axially symmetric primary field.
