N. Marly et al., INTEGRAL-EQUATION MODELING OF THE SCATTERING AND ABSORPTION OF MULTILAYERED DOUBLY-PERIODIC LOSSY STRUCTURES, IEEE transactions on antennas and propagation, 43(11), 1995, pp. 1281-1287
In the past, the scattering and absorption of a doubly-periodic array
of pyramidal absorbers were analyzed using a surface integral equation
(SIE) approach. This method is now extended to multilayered absorbers
with arbitrarily shaped surfaces between the layers. The developed me
thod is verified on planar stratified absorbers, on wedge absorbers, a
nd rectangular absorbers showing the capability of the method to handl
e such structures as well, It is also shown that convergence depends c
ritically on the discretization of the equivalent electric and magneti
c current.
