Abstract
A novel method is presented that is based on the use of the Kontorovich-Lebedev integral transform and the semi-inversion technique, developed for building the efficient and accurate numerical solutions to the boundary-value problems of electromagnetic wave scattering by the 3D coaxial slotted cones. A generic structure under consideration consists of two semi-infinite coaxial circular perfectly electrical conducting and zero-thickness cones with periodic longitudinal slots excited by a radial dipole. The considered problem is reduced to an infinite set of linear algebraic equations of the Fredholm second kind that is truncated and solved numerically. A detail analysis of the accuracy and convergence of the method is presented. The basic electromagnetic characteristics such as the field behavior near the structure singularities, field patterns in the wave zone, and field polarization for various problem parameters are investigated for the cones excited by on-axis elementary dipoles. The slotted cones allow obtaining more directional patterns in wider band than the solid ones.
