Abstract:
The interaction phenomenon of electromagnetic plane waves by a right angled interface between whole and half screens with different resistivities is studied. The construction, under examination, is considered in order to model various corner discontinuities between transmissive surfaces for indoor wireless communications. First of all, the initial waves, which occur in the absence of the diffracting edge, are determined. Then the scattered geometrical optics fields are obtained by subtracting the initial waves from the total geometrical optics fields. The diffracted field is constructed directly from the scattered geometrical optics wave by a new method. The resultant field expressions are examined numerically.
