5 Two-Dimensional Sources Two-dimensional radiation is created by sources independent of z. The simplest such source (akin to a Hertzian Dipole) is an infinite filament. Such a current radiates TM z. Consider a filamentary current I on the z-axis. Since its radiation is 1 Independent of φ, 2 Independent of z, and 3 Outwardly traveling, the magnetic vector potential must be of the form A z = µch (2) 0 (kρ)

6 Radiation from a Filament Now, we must have Now 2π lim ρ 0 0 H φ ρ dφ = I H = 1 µ A implies H φ = C ρ For small ρ, we have [ H (2) 0 (kρ) ] = kch (2) 1 (kρ). H (2) kρ 1 (kρ) 2 + j 2 π kρ

7 Radiation from a Filament Substituting this into our equation, so finally and we have the kc lim ρ 0 2π Magnetic Vector Potential 0 ( kρ 2 + j ) 2 ρ dφ = I π kρ C = 1 4j A z = µi 4j H(2) 0 (kρ) 2jC π 2π = I

8 Fields of a Filament Cylindrical Radiation Given A z we can easily compute Filamentary Fields E z = k 2 I 4ωɛ H(2) 0 (kρ) H φ = ki 4j H(2) 1 (kρ) Using large argument approximations, we can find Far Fields E z = ηki j 8πkρ e jkρ H φ = ki j 8πkρ e jkρ

9 Observations Cylindrical Radiation Near the source, E and H are not in phase and have a complex relationship. Far from the source, E and H Are in phase, Have ratio η, and Decrease as ρ 1 2. The total radiation (per unit length) must be independent of radius (which can be proven directly). Therefore, we can use the far field expression to compute the power: P = 2π 0 E z H φρdφ = 2π 0 ( ) ) j ηki (ki 8πkρ e jkρ j 8πkρ ejkρ ρ dφ = ηk 2 I 2 8πkρ 2πρ = ηk 4 I 2

10 Two-Dimensional Notation To proceed further, it is useful to define ρ = xu x + yu y ρ = x u x + y u y The distance between these points is ρ ρ = (ρ ρ ) (ρ ρ ) = ρ 2 + (ρ ) 2 2ρ ρ = ρ 2 + (ρ ) 2 2ρρ cos(φ φ )

11 Radiation Due to a Filament The radiation due to a current I at the origin we have seen is A z = µi 4j H(2) 0 (kρ). Therefore, if the current is located at ρ, we have Filamentary Radiation A z (ρ) = µi 4j H(2) 0 (k ρ ρ ) Similarly, a filamentary magnetic current K at ρ radiates F z (ρ) = ɛk 4j H(2) 0 (k ρ ρ )

13 Green s Function Cylindrical Radiation If a current density J z (ρ) is independent of z, we can think of it as a bundle of filaments with current J z (ρ)ds. Then we have the General Formulas for Two-Dimensional Radiation A z (ρ) = µ 4j F z (ρ) = ɛ 4j J z (ρ )H (2) 0 (k ρ ρ )ds M z (ρ )H (2) 0 (k ρ ρ )ds From here, the fields can be computed in the usual way.

14 Far Fields Cylindrical Radiation In the far field, we can make the standard approximation Similarly, for x, ρ ρ ρ ρ cos(φ φ ) H (2) 0 (x) 2j πx e jx. Combining these (and remembering to use a simpler approximation in the denominator) we have The Far Field A z (ρ) = µ e jkρ 8jπkρ F z (ρ) = ɛ e jkρ 8jπkρ J z (ρ )e jkρ cos(φ φ ) ds M z (ρ )e jkρ cos(φ φ ) ds

15 Far Fields Cylindrical Radiation We can compute the far fields using the definitions of A and F. The results are similar to three-dimensional results. Relationship Between E and H E φ = ηh z E z = ηh φ Far Electric Fields E φ = jωηf z E z = jωa z

17 Plane Wave Expansion We often want to express plane waves in cylindrical wave functions. The result must be Thus Finite at the origin, and 2π-periodic. e jx = e jρ cos φ = To find the a n, use orthogonality 2π 0 e jρ cos φ e jmφ dφ = n= n= a n J n (ρ)e jnφ. a n J n (ρ) 2π 0 e j(n m)φ dφ

18 Plane Wave Expansion Using orthogonality 2π 0 e jρ cos φ e jmφ dφ = 2πa m J m (ρ) The integral on the right-hand side is well-known J n (x) = jn 2π 2π 0 e jx cos φ e jmφ dφ

19 Plane Wave Expansion Substituting this in, we find a m = j m and finally The Plane Wave Expansion of Cylindrical Waves e jx = e jρ cos φ = j n J n (ρ)e jnφ n= How might this formula be modified for waves travelling in other directions?

20 The Addition Theorem We are also interested in expanding the field of a filament with respect to a different center. We have seen that a filamentary current I located at ρ = ρ radiates a field with A z = µψ with ψ(ρ, φ) = I 4π H(2) 0 (k ρ ρ ). We can think of the current generating this field as a current sheet, confined to the ρ = ρ cylinder, with J z (φ) = Iδ(φ φ ) ρ where the denominator ensures that 2π 0 J z (φ)ρdφ = I

21 The Addition Theorem We can expand the field inside and outside the tube of current: an J n (kρ)e jnφ for ρ < ρ n= ψ(ρ, φ) = a n + H (2) n (kρ)e jnφ for ρ > ρ n= Since E z ψ, ψ must be continuous at ρ. Thus This is solved if we let a n J n (kρ ) = a + n H (2) n (kρ ). an = H (2) n (kρ )a n a n + = J n (kρ )a n

22 The Addition Theorem We now have ψ(ρ, φ) = Now H φ = ψ ρ = n= n= k k a n H (2) n (kρ )J n (kρ)e jnφ for ρ < ρ a n J n (kρ )H (2) n (kρ)e jnφ for ρ > ρ n= n= a n H (2) n (kρ )J n(kρ)e jnφ for ρ < ρ a n J n (kρ )H (2) n (kρ)e jnφ for ρ > ρ

23 The Addition Theorem From boundary conditions, we have H φ (ρ = ρ + ) H φ (ρ = ρ ) = J z We thus have k a n [J n (kρ )H (2) n (kρ ) H (2) n (kρ )J n(kρ )]e jnφ = J z n= The standard Wronskian formula gives J n (kρ )H (2) n (kρ ) H (2) n (kρ )J n(kρ ) = 2j πkρ

24 The Addition Theorem Therefore, plugging in, 2j πρ n= a n e jnφ = Iδ(φ φ ) ρ We can now find the a n using orthogonality: j π n= a n 2π 0 e jnφ e jmφ dφ = I 2π 0 4ja m = Ie jmφ a m = I 4j e jmφ δ(φ φ )e jmφ dφ

25 The Addition Theorem We thus find that the field of a filament can be expanded as A z = µψ with I 4j H (2) n (kρ )J n (kρ)e jn(φ φ ) for ρ < ρ n= ψ(ρ, φ) = J n (kρ )H (2) n (kρ)e jn(φ φ ) for ρ > ρ I 4j n= Equating our earlier expression, this gives The Addition Theorem H (2) 0 (k ρ ρ ) = n= n= J n (kρ)h (2) n (kρ )e jn(φ φ ) for ρ < ρ J n (kρ )H (2) n (kρ)e jn(φ φ ) for ρ > ρ

26 Outline Cylindrical Radiation from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge 1 Cylindrical Radiation 2 from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge

27 from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge TM by a Circular Cylinder Consider a PEC cylinder of radius a. Let it be excited by a z-polarized incident wave Ez i = E 0 e jkx jkρ cos φ = E 0 e Using our plane wave expansion, we may write E i z = E 0 The total field is of course n= E z = E i z + E s z ; j n J n (kρ)e jnφ it must vanish on the surface of the cylinder.

28 from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge TM from a Circular Cylinder We may expand the scattered field as

29 from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge TM from a Circular Cylinder We may expand the scattered field as E s z = E 0 n= j n a n H (2) n (kρ)e jnφ The total field on the surface of the cylinder is thus E z = E 0 n= [ ] j n J n (ka) + a n H (2) n (ka) e jnφ = 0 Therefore a n = J n(ka) H (2) n (ka)

30 from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge TM from a Circular Cylinder, Current From here we can find any information about the scattering we want. For instance J z = H φ ρ=a = 1 E z jωµ ρ Now 1 jωµ = E 0 jωµ E z ρ = E 0 ρ=a jωµ n= n= ρ=a [ ] j n J n(ka) + a n H (2) n (ka) e jnφ [ ] j n H (2) n (ka)j n(ka) + J n (ka)h (2) n (ka) e jnφ H (2) n (ka)

31 from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge TM from a Circular Cylinder, Current Using the Wronskian relation, we find The Surface Current J s (φ) = 2E 0 ωµπa n= j n e jnφ H (2) n (ka) For a thin wire, the first term dominates and we can even write E 0 I = 2π jωµ log ka

32 from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge TM from a Circular Cylinder, Scattered Field Of course, the exact scattered field is given above: E s z = E 0 n= j n a n H (2) n (kρ)e jnφ Using the far field formula for Hankel Functions, we find the Scattered Far Field Ez s = E 0 e jkρ 2 πkρ a n e jnφ We may treat the other polarization in the same way.

33 from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge due to Filamentary Excitation We can also consider the scattering due to a current I located at ρ. In this case, the incident field is E i z = k 2 I = k 2 I 4ωɛ 4ωɛ H(2) 0 (k ρ ρ ) H (2) n (kρ )J n (kρ)e jn(φ φ ) n= for ρ < ρ We can write the scattered field in the form E s z = k 2 I 4ωɛ n= c n H (2) n (kρ )H (2) n (kρ)e jn(φ φ )

34 from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge due to Filamentary Excitation From the preceding, it is obvious that The final solution is thus the c n = J n(ka) H (2) n (ka) Total Field from Filamentary E z = k 2 I 4ωɛ n= [ ] H (2) n (kρ > ) J n (kρ < ) + c n H (2) n (kρ < ) e jn(φ φ ) Here ρ < = min(ρ, ρ ) ρ > = max(ρ, ρ )

41 Outline Cylindrical Radiation from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge 1 Cylindrical Radiation 2 from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge

42 from a Wedge from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge Now we look at filamentary scattering from a wedge. y The wedge is composed of two half planes φ = α and φ = 2π α. The filament carries current I and is located at (ρ, φ ). ρ α φ x

43 A Different Approach from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge We can write the Total Electric Field E z = ν a ν J ν (kρ < )H ν (2) (kρ > ) sin[ν(φ α)] sin[ν(φ α)] The dependence on ρ and φ is clear enough. How can I just write a dependence on ρ and φ? Since E z (α) = E z (2π α) = 0, ν = ν m = mπ 2(π α)

44 Expansion of the Current from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge The current can be thought of as a cylindrical sheet current (A/m) with an impulsive distribution: J z = I δ(φ φ ) ρ This current can be expanded in a Fourier series in the usual way: J z = I (π α)ρ sin ν m (φ α) sin ν m (φ α) m=1 From boundary conditions, this current is related to the field by J z = H φ (ρ + ) H φ (ρ )

45 from a Wedge from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge From the usual equations we can find k jωµ m=1 H φ = k jωµ m=1 a νm H (2) ν m (kρ )J ν m (kρ) sin ν m (φ α) sin ν m (φ α) ρ < ρ a νm H (2) ν m (kρ )J νm (kρ) sin ν m (φ α) sin ν m (φ α) ρ > ρ Using the Wronskian, we can write J z = 2 ωµπρ a νm sin ν m (φ α) sin ν m (φ α) m=1 Equating the two expressions for J z we find a νm = ωµπi 2(π α)

46 from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge Plane Wave from a Wedge We can generalize our solution to plane wave scattering by taking the limit as the limit as the source recedes. The original incident field was E i z = k 2 I 4ωɛ H(2) 0 (k ρ ρ ) Using the large argument approximation and the far field approximation of ρ ρ we write Ez i = ωµi 2j 4 πkρ e jkρ e jkρ cos(φ φ )

47 from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge Plane Wave from a Wedge This can be written as E i z = E 0 e jkρ cos(φ φ ) where E 0 = ωµi 2j 4 πkρ e jkρ Why is E 0 dependent on ρ?

48 from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge Plane Wave from a Wedge This can be written as E i z = E 0 e jkρ cos(φ φ ) where E 0 = ωµi 2j 4 πkρ e jkρ Why is E 0 dependent on ρ? For large ρ our solution is 2j E z = πkρ a n j νm J νm (kρ) sin ν m (φ α) sin ν m (φ α) m=1

49 from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge Plane Wave from a Wedge Plugging in for I and a n we find The Total Field E z = 2πE 0 π α j νm J νm (kρ) sin ν m (φ α) sin ν m (φ α) m=1

51 2.5 Dimensions? Cylindrical Radiation from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge 2.5 dimensions is a term of art, not an actual physical description. The geometry of the problem is assumed two-dimensional. The source, however, may be three dimensional. The problems are attacked by superposition (i.e. Fourier Methods). Suppose ( ) 2 x y z 2 + k 2 ψ = 0

52 The General Approach from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge Since the boundaries are independent of z, we can define ψ in terms of A Superposition ψ(x, y, z) = 1 2π ψ(x, y, k z )e jkzz dk z Substituting into the Helmholtz equation, we find that [ ] 2 x y 2 + (k 2 kz 2 ) We define (as usual) k 2 ρ = k 2 k 2 z. ψ = 0

53 A Filament Cylindrical Radiation from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge Suppose we have a filament of current I(z). We of course have a TM z field, A z = µψ. The wave function can be written in the form ψ = 1 2π f (k z )H (2) 0 (k ρρ)dk z. Here, then, the transform of the function is ψ = f (k z )H (2) 0 (k ρρ).

54 A Filament Cylindrical Radiation from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge The azimuthal magnetic field is H φ = ψ ρ = k ρf (k z )H (2) 0 (k ρ ρ). Now, by Ampère s law, lim ρ 0 H φ dl = Ĩ For small ρ, H φ = k ρ f (k z ) d dx ( 2j π ln γx 2 ) x=kρ = 2j πρ f (k z)

55 A Filament Cylindrical Radiation from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge Thus or Finally, we find the lim ρ 0 H φ dl = 2πρ 2j πρ f (k z) = Ĩ f (k z ) = Ĩ 4j 2.5-D Filament Solution ψ = 1 8πj Ĩ(k z )H (2) 0 ( ) ρ k 2 kz 2 e jkzz dk z

56 Another Way Cylindrical Radiation from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge We can always make a line current out of dipoles. We thus have The Spatial Approach ψ = e jk ρ 2 +(z z ) 2 I(z ) 4π ρ 2 + (z z ) 2 dz Now, suppose we choose I(z ) = Ilδ(z ). Then ψ = Il e jkr 4πr. Also, we have Ĩ(k z) = Il, since the Fourier Transform of the delta function is unity.

57 A New Identity Cylindrical Radiation from a Circular Cylinder from a Wedge Plugging this transform into the 2.5-D solution, ψ = Il 8πj ( ) H (2) 0 ρ k 2 kz 2 e jkzz dk z Setting these two expressions to each other, we find An Identity e jkr r = 1 2j ( ) H (2) 0 ρ k 2 kz 2 e jkzz dk z
