TM Electromagnetic Scattering from 2D Multilayered Dielectric Bodies - Numerical SolutionAbstract
An integral equation approach is derived for an electromagnetic scattering from an M arbitrary multilayered
dielectric domain. The integral equation is valid for the 2D and 3D Helmholtz equation. Here we show the
numerical solution for the 2D case by using the Nystr ̈om method. For validating the method we develop a
mode matching method for the case when the domains are multilayered circular cylinders and give numerical
results for illustrating the algorithm
