| Abstract: | It is shown that the scattered fields are almost space bandlimited functions. The effective bandwidthWis introduced and evaluated for a very general scattering system, as well as the error made using functions bandlimited tow > Wfor representing the scattered field. The effective bandwidth is very simply related to the maximum dimension of the scattering system; the error drops to negligible values for modest increases ofwcompared toW, in the case of large scatterers. Important consequences of the above general results are finally stressed. |
