Forward and Backward Waves in High-Frequency Diffraction by an Elongated Spheroid
By
Progress In Electromagnetics Research B, Vol. 29, 209-231, 2011
Abstract
The asymptotics of induced current of forward and backward waves on a strongly elongated spheroid is constructed by matching the asymptotic representations to exact solution valid in a vicinity of the rear tip of the spheroid. These asymptotic results are compared with numerical computations.
