Abstract: | High-frequency surface currents induced on a surface with edges can be interpreted as being composed of components attributable to the reflections and edge or surface diffractions of the incident field as well as to the edge reflections of these components themselves. The explicit expressions of the former components can be obtained from a set of properly formulated canonical problems if the surface consists of a cylindrically or spherically curved sheet. These types of canonical problems are not suitable for the derivation of the edge-reflected components, a fact that should be considered in dealing with currents induced on sheets of finite extent. A conjecture is made about the edge-reflected currents induced on a cylindrically curved sheet, and some of its consequences are shown. The normal and oblique incidence cases are considered separately |
