Abstract :
Summary form only given. A plane electromagnetic wave impinges obliquely upon an electrically long cylindrical target of arbitrary cross section and electrical properties, and scatters from it. The cross-sectional geometry is characterized by a length L, such as a maximal diameter, and the length of the cylinder is H. A two-step hybrid method, which essentially exploits L approximately lambda <>
