Abstract

We study the diffraction by a wedge of an electromagnetic plane wave with skew incidence on the edge, when boundary conditions give us two equations by face with combined electric and magnetic fields. The problem is reduced principally to a non linear scalar functional equation with one unknown. As an example of application, the solution for a wedge with arbitrary angle and relative impedance unity (the most usual model for absorbing material) is given.

Résumé

L’auteur étudie la diffraction par un dièdre d’une onde plane avec incidence oblique par rapport à l’arête quand les conditions aux limites donnent deux équations par face couplant les composantes suivant l’arête du champ électrique et du champ magnétique. Le problème est ici principalement réduit à une équation fonctionnelle non linéaire à une inconnue. Comme exemple particulier d’application, la solution pour un dièdre d’impédance relative unité (le modèle le plus courant d’absorbant) est développée.
