Abstract :
A detailed analysis is presented of assumptions and limitations of physical optics and stationary phase techniques for radome analysis. A two-dimensional ogival structure with an electric or magnetic line source inside is investigated. A method-of-moments analysis using J.H. Richmond´s (1965) polarization current technique is performed to obtain reference results. Physical optics, uniform geometrical theory of diffraction, and stationary phase techniques of order 1 and 2 are analyzed
