Analysis of the electromagnetic scattering by perfectly conducting convex polygonal cylinders

An effective method for the analysis of the scattering by a perfectly conducting convex polygonal cross-section cylinder is presented. The effectiveness stems from the generalization of the Neumann series, factorising the right edge behavior of the electromagnetic field, thus leading to a quickly convergent method. The induced currents, the radar cross section (RCS) and the induced field ratio have been evaluated.
