Abstract :
We derive a new formulation of the electric-field integral equation for the surface current density on an infinitely long conducting strip, with a TE incident field. The formulation avoids the use of a differential operator, allows numerical solution using pulse basis functions and point matching, and is applicable to any two-dimensional scatterer. Our approach is readily extendable to three-dimensional problems.
