Abstract

A method based on the approximate wave functions for anisotropic media and the mode-matching approach is developed to solve the problem of the electromagnetic scattering from an anisotropic cylindrical dielectric shell. The cylindrical shell is assumed to be infinite in length, and it is illuminated by a plane wave or a cylindrical wave from a line source. The problem is two-dimensional and the solutions to both types of polarization (TE and TM) are presented. The validity of this solution is verified by comparing the numerical results with those in literatures and the previous calculations based on the exact wave functions for anisotropic media. Numerical results show the higher computational efficiency of the present method for bounded anisotropic media.
