Abstract

The interaction of electromagnetic waves with an array of absorbing wedges or pyramid cones is studied in the low-frequency limit; i.e., when the period of the array is small compared with wavelength. A theoretical model is obtained using the method of homogenization, which replaces the transversely periodic structure with a transversely uniform medium possessing a certain (generally anisotropic) effective permittivity and permeability. Plane-wave reflection from such structures can then be modeled using well-known techniques for one-dimensionally inhomogeneous media; a Riccati equation for the reflection coefficient is used in this work. This model is appropriate for use with absorbers found in anechoic chambers used for electromagnetic compatibility and electromagnetic interference (EMC/EMI) measurements over the frequency range of 30-1000 MHz.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
