Abstract :
The two-dimensional problem of diffraction by a half-plane with a cylindrical dielectric cap due to an electric line source near the edge is investigated by the boundary value method. It is shown that the effect of the dielectric cap is significant for modifying the amplitudes and polar locations of the diffraction lobes.
