Two-Dimensional Method-of-Moments Analysis of TMz and TEz Scattering from PEC Cylinders

Sabrina Saima

This paper presents a two-dimensional method-of-moments (MoM) solver for electromagnetic scattering from infinitely long perfectly electrically conducting (PEC) cylinders. Both TMz and TEz polarizations are considered. Starting from the scalar Helmholtz equation, the electric field integral equation (EFIE) is derived for TMz scattering and the magnetic field integral equation (MFIE) is derived for TEz scattering. The induced surface current on the PEC boundary is expanded using pulse basis functions, and the boundary integral equations are discretized using point matching at the segment centers. Circular cylinders with radii $R = λ$ and $R = 2λ$ are used as validation cases because analytical series solutions are available. The MoM-computed surface currents, total near fields, scattered near fields, and field-error distributions are compared against the analytical solutions. After validation, the same solver is applied to a square PEC cylinder, for which no simple closed-form analytical solution is used. The results show strong agreement between the MoM and analytical circular-cylinder solutions and demonstrate the geometry-dependent scattering behavior of the square cylinder.

Cyclic-Prefix-Free OFDM With Tail-Reuse Reconstruction for Distributed Acoustic Sensing

Ziang Chen, Zhiyang Xue, Zhongxing Tian, Zeyu Feng, Dongdong Zou, Yi Cai, et al.

Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) enables frequency-domain reconstruction of the distributed Rayleigh backscatter channel in coherent distributed acoustic sensing (DAS), but an explicitly transmitted cyclic prefix (CP) lengthens the probing period and reduces the…

Broadband Content-Adaptive Moiré Meta-spectrometer

Arnab Ghosh, Johannes E. Fröch, Arka Majumdar, Vishwanath Saragadam

Optical spectroscopy underpins material characterization, chemical sensing, and astronomy, but conventional instruments face a rigid trade-off between footprint, spectral range, and resolution. We demonstrate a content-adaptive spectrometer that overcomes this by co-designing dis…

Remedying Coarsening-Based GNN Training under Heterophily via Adaptive Complementary Enhancement

Guoming Li, Jian Yang, Xukun Wang, Zixiao Wang, Shangsong Liang, Yifan Chen

Coarsening-based training for graph neural networks (GNNs), i.e.\ training on coarsened graphs rather than the original large ones, has become a promising direction for scaling GNNs to massive graphs. However, prior work has been evaluated almost exclusively on \textit{homophilic…
