Wave Scattering Theory: A Series Approach Based on the Fourier Transformation

The technique of fourier transform has been widely used in the area of electrical engineering, which covers signal processing, communication, system control, electromagnetics and optics. Since a Fourier-transform representation can adequately describe the behavior of electromagnetic wave propagation and scattering, it has been long applied to solve the wave equation dealing with the boundary-value-problems. This book deals with the boundary-value-problems of certain canonical scattering geometries where the technique of separation of variables is applicable. Fourier transform in conjunction with the mode-matching technique yields a simple, analytic, and rapidly-convergent series solution. The purpose of this book is to present such analytic series solutions to the canonical poblems which have been worked out by the author in the last 10 years.
