Abstract :
Two methods to calculate the diffraction pattern of a magnetic current placed near the edge of a semi-infinite dielectric structure with a vertical wall are presented. The first method is based on the integral equation technique and the second one consists of the combination of the geometrical theory of diffraction and the expansion wave concept.
