Abstract
This paper presents an integral equation method for the solution of the field scattered by a set of cylinders with arbitrary cross-sectional shape, and arbitrarily varying anisotropic surface impedance. The integral equations are given for an arbitrary source with arbitrary harmonic variation along the cylinder axis. The scattering problem can be solved for arbitrary three-dimensional sources by expansion of the source in a Fourier integral over the axial propagation constant. The integral equations have been programmed for a CDC 1604A computer. The program developed has been used to solve a great variety of scattering, antenna, and propagation problems, and, depending upon accuracy desired, will handle cylinders up to about 150-wavelengths total perimeter. Numerical results on scattering from cylinders with specific cross sections are presented to illustrate the utility of the program developed.
