Abstract :
Scattering from bodies of revolution with anisotropic and arbitrary boundary conditions is formulated. It is shown that the effect of impedance boundary conditions is to modify only the diagonal elements of the characteristic matrix of the object for the numerical solution. Application to corrugated feeds and consequent simplification of the characteristic matrix, owing to corrugation geometry, are also discussed.
