Abstract :
We derive a pair of boundary integral equations for the problem of scattering of an electromagnetic wave by an indentation in a perfectly conducting screen. The wall of the indentation obeys a dyadic impedance boundary condition. The unknowns are the electric current density on the wall of the indentation and the total tangential magnetic field in the opening of the indentation. We also derive integral representations for the fields everywhere in free space, including the far-field region. In all cases, the integrals involved extend over finite surfaces only
