Construction of asymptotic solutions to scattering problems in the fourier transform representation

  • Published:
Applied Scientific Research, Section A Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

It is shown that the construction of a high-frequency asymptotic solution for the problem of a slit can be greatly simplified in the Fourier transform representation. This is accomplished by iterative solution of a pair of coupled integral equations whose kernels are the Green's functions for two isolated half planes.
