The Wiener-Hopf method applied to dielectric angular regions: The wedge

This paper reports the state of the art on the study of diffraction by a dielectric wedge and it proposes a new method to compute the diffracted field. In particular the paper presents the application of the Wiener-Hopf method to the problem of diffraction of a plane wave by a dielectric wedge immersed in free space. The formulation and the equations are proposed and discussed in the spectral domain.
