Millimeter-Wave Scattering and Transmission of Misaligned Dual Metallic Grating Screens

Abstract

This paper presents a rigorous analysis of the electromagnetic scattering and transmission of misaligned dual metallic grating screens. The Fourier transform and the mode-matching technique are employed to obtain an analytical solution. Numerical results show that misaligned dual metal grating screens exhibit asymmetric scattering and transmission properties with respect to the scattering and transmission angles. Parametric studies are conducted in terms of the lateral displacement and vertical distance between the dual metallic grating screens. For validation, the proposed method is compared with a numerical simulation and good agreement has been achieved.
