摘要

This paper presents the effect of the inner shape on the statistical properties of the scattering cross-section of an aperture on a high-Q cavity. By combining the full-wave method and Monte Carlo simulations, the mean scattered far-field pattern of the aperture on a high-Q cavity can be obtained accurately. We show that the cosine roll-off distribution for the scattered far-field pattern is only an approximation for ideal cases, while the thickness and the inner shape of the aperture can affect the scattered far-field pattern significantly. Different models are used to demonstrate this phenomenon and the results are compared against the ideal cosine roll-off.
