Abstract
In this paper, an approximate solution for electromagnetic scattering by a very thin planar homogeneous dielectric object is presented. This solution is obtained from a volumetric integral equation using Fourier transform and is shown to be uniformly valid from low to high frequencies at all incidence angles including edge-on incidence. Validity of the solution is demonstrated through a comparison with canonical objects such as an infinite dielectric slab, and a number of two-dimensional (2-D) and three-dimensional (3-D) dielectric scatterers. For 2-D, and 3-D scatterers, the approximate solution is compared with a method of moments solution. In all cases examined the approximate formulation provides very accurate results except for situations where the dielectric constant is very high.
