Abstract :
The authors present a volume integral formulation in conjunction with a method of moments solution for electromagnetic scattering from two- and three-dimensional homogeneous dielectric printed circuit substrates. The theory for printed circuits consisting of dielectric substrates and conducting surfaces is presented. The TE scattering from a dielectric cylinder and a dielectric sheet are computed and compared to other numerical results. The results for electromagnetic scattering from a three-dimensional dielectric cube are compared to other results.
