内容記述 | An analytical technique is described for predicting the electromagnetic (EM) scattering by complex obstacles within electrically large open waveguide cavities. This topic is of relevance to EM scattering and EMC type applications. A general open ended waveguide cavity is illustrated and is assumed to be relatively arbitrarily shaped, and the open front end of the cavity is illuminated by an arbitrarily polarized external plane wave field. The interior obstacle is assumed to be located within the cavity near the back end, and it generally contributes significantly to the fields scattered into the exterior by the entire cavity configuration. The present scattering analysis is restricted to within approximately 70 degs from boresight with respect to the open front end; outside of this region, the scattering by the external features of the cavity are generally more significant than from the interior of the cavity. The scattering analysis is composed of two main parts. One analysis is of the coupling of the incident plane wave field, via the open front end using the high frequency ray or beam shooting methods. The other analysis deals with separately obtaining the plane wave scattering characteristics of the interior obstacle. Thus the present analysis represents a hybrid combination of an asymptotic high frequency ray/beam method for tracking the fields through the cavity, together with any suitable method for obtaining a plane wave characterization of the interior obstacle. |
