This monograph is concerned with the direct-scattering of electromagnetic waves by one- and two-dimensional objects, and the use of this technique in one-dimensional inverse profiling. It discusses results of research into the method of this technique and its application to specific problems.
Several techniques are presented for solving transient electromagnetic direct-scattering problems. These... Read more
