Readers develop the skills to apply PTD to solve various scattering problems. The derived analytic expressions clearly illustrate the physical structure of the scattered field. They additionally describe all of the reflected and diffracted rays and beams, as well as the fields in the vicinity of caustics and foci. Shadow radiation, a fundamental component of PTD, is introduced and ... Read more
- Plotted numeric results supplement the theory and facilitate the visualization of individual contributions of distinct parts of the scattering objects to the total diffracted field
- Detailed comments help readers understand and implement all the critical steps of the analytic and numeric calculations
- Problem sets in each chapter give readers an opportunity to analyse and investigate the diffraction phenomena
