Development of Numerical Techniques for Forward and Inverse Waveguide Scattering Problems

摘要

Development of the methods and algorithms [1], [2] are considered for the numerical solution to the forward problem of the electromagnetic wave scattering by inhomogeneous dielectric inclusions in a waveguide of rectangular cross section and inverse problem of reconstructing parameters of the dielectric inclusions from the values of the transmission coefficient of the scattered electromagnetic wave. The codes are developed implementing an FDTD method that employs the PML-layer technique. Numerical modeling and simulations are performed for the analysis of the wave propagation in waveguides of rectangular cross section loaded with parallel-plane layered media (layered dielectric diaphragms) and such diaphragms containing cubic dielectric inclusions. Validation is carried out of the results of calculations using closed-form solution [3] to the canonical single-layer structure.
