Scattering by a conductive half-screen between isorefractive media

Abstract

The scattering process of electromagnetic waves by a conductive half-plane, located between isorefractive media, is investigated. First, the conductive sheet at the interface of isorefractive media is considered. The reflection and transmission coefficients of the plane are evaluated. The diffracted fields by the half-plane are obtained with the aid of a relation between the diffracted and scattered geometrical optics waves. The resultant field expressions are numerically examined.
