A rigorous theory on electromagnetic diffraction by a planar aperture in a perfectly conducting screen
Abstract
In this paper, we revisit the classic problem of diffraction of electromagnetic waves by an aperture in a perfectly conducting plane. We formulate the diffraction problem using a boundary integral equation that is defined on the aperture using Dyadic Green's function. This integral equation turns out to align with the one derived by Bethe using fictitious magnetic charges and currents. We then investigate the boundary integral equation using a saddle point formulation and establish the well-posedness of the boundary integral equation, including the existence and uniqueness of the solution in an appropriately defined Sobolev space.
