Travelling waves on thin bodies
Abstract
The high-frequency expressions for the backscattered fields of wires and ribbons are compared, with particular reference to the travelling wave lobes. It is shown that the travelling wave lobes can be located in both cases using the same equation. The result lends support to the idea of treating a planar structure as an assemblage of elementary wires.
