Abstract

Designing the antenna systems for space vehicles employing electrojet thrusters has to be based on a strict solution of the problem of electromagnetic wave diffraction on two bodies. Here, the problem of diffraction on two spherical surfaces is strictly solved in terms of the scalar field potentials. A method for the transformation of wave amplitudes upon a shift of the spherical coordinate system is proposed. The results of numerical calculations are presented.
