VECTOR WAVE FUNCTION EXPANSION FOR SOLVING ELECTROMAGNETIC SCATTERING BY BURIED OBJECTS

An analysis of solving the electromagnetic scattering by buried objects using vectorwave function expansion is presented.For expanding the boundary conditions both on the planarair-earth interface and on the spherical surface,the conversion relations between the cylindricaland spherical vector wave functions are derived.Hence the vector wave function expansion isconveniently applied to solve this complex boundary-value problem.For the excitation of the in-cident plane wave and the dipole above the earth,the scatterlng patterns of the buried conductingand dielectric spheres are presented and discussed.     

求解埋入体电磁散射问题的矢量波函数展开法

本文利用矢量波函数展开法求解了任意激励原埋入体的电磁散射问题。通过导出圆柱和圆球矢量波函数的转换关系,使场量满足分界平面和数学球面边界条件,从而方便地利用矢量波函数展开求解了这一复杂边值问题。作为示例,本文计算了在平面波和偶极子激励下,埋入导体球和介质球的散射场。
