| Abstract: |
A two-dimensional perturbation theory of electromagnetic diffraction by a cylindrical conductor is developed, based upon Robin’s integral equation of electrostatics. An innovative feature of the theory is of not requiring a boundary condition of zero tangential electric field at the conducting surface, but requiring explicitly that the bulk conductivity be taken into account, and solutions of Maxwell’s equations are obtained for both the interior and exterior regions. The theory is a near-field, low-frequency one, being perhaps valid for the highest radio frequencies, but not for optical frequencies or for great distances from the cylinder.
