Two-dimensional scattering from an inhomogeneous dielectric cylinder embedded in a stratified medium: case of TM polarization

Two-dimensional scattering of a TM-polarized electromagnetic wave from a transversely inhomogeneous isotropic body buried in a homogeneous layer of an arbitrarily stratified isotropic medium has been considered using the integral equation formulation over the cross section of the body and the moment method. The arising system of linear algebraic equations is solved with the aid of the conjugate gradient method and the one-dimensional fast Fourier transform. Illustrative numerical results are presented for both an inclusion in a half space and in a layer on a homogeneous substrate. >
