Two-Dimensional Sources

Two-dimensional radiation is created by sourcesindependent of z.The simplest such source (akin to a Hertzian Dipole) is aninfinite filament.Such a current radiates TMz .

Consider a filamentary current I on the z-axis. Since itsradiation is

1 Independent of φ,2 Independent of z, and3 Outwardly traveling,

the magnetic vector potential must be of the form

Az = µCH(2)0 (kρ)

Two-Dimensional Notation

To proceed further, it is useful to define

ρ = xux + yuy

ρ′ = x ′ux + y ′uy

The distance between these points is

|ρ− ρ′| =√

(ρ− ρ′) · (ρ− ρ′)

=√ρ2 + (ρ′)2 − 2ρ · ρ′

=√ρ2 + (ρ′)2 − 2ρρ′ cos(φ− φ′)

Radiation Due to a Filament

The radiation due to a current I at the origin we have seen is

Az =µI4j

H(2)0 (kρ).

Therefore, if the current is located at ρ′, we have

Filamentary Radiation

Az(ρ) =µI4j

H(2)0 (k |ρ− ρ′|)

Similarly, a filamentary magnetic current K at ρ′ radiates

Fz(ρ) =εK4j

The Addition Theorem

We are also interested in expanding the field of a filamentwith respect to a different center.We have seen that a filamentary current I located at ρ = ρ′

radiates a field with Az = µψ with

ψ(ρ, φ) =I

4πH(2)

0 (k |ρ− ρ′|).

We can think of the current generating this field as acurrent sheet, confined to the ρ = ρ′ cylinder, with

Jz(φ) =Iδ(φ− φ′)

ρ

where the denominator ensures that∫ 2π

0Jz(φ)ρdφ = I

D. S. Weile Cylindrical Radiation and Scattering

Cylindrical RadiationScattering

Sources of Cylindrical RadiationGreen’s Function and Far FieldWave Transformations

The Addition Theorem

We can expand the field inside and outside the tube of current:

ψ(ρ, φ) =

∞∑

n=−∞a−n Jn(kρ)ejnφ for ρ < ρ′

∞∑n=−∞

a+n H(2)

n (kρ)ejnφ for ρ > ρ′

Since Ez ∝ ψ, ψ must be continuous at ρ′. Thus

a−n Jn(kρ′) = a+n H(2)

n (kρ′).

This is solved if we let

a−n = H(2)n (kρ′)an

a+n = Jn(kρ′)an

D. S. Weile Cylindrical Radiation and Scattering

From boundary conditions, we have

A Filament

The azimuthal magnetic field is

Hφ = −∂ψ∂ρ

= −kρf (kz)H(2)′0 (kρρ).

Now, by Ampère’s law,

limρ→0

∮Hφd` = I

For small ρ,

Hφ = kρf (kz)d

Another Way

We can always make a line current out of dipoles. We thus have

The Spatial Approach

ψ =

∞∫−∞

I(z ′)e−jk√ρ2+(z−z′)2

4π√ρ2 + (z − z ′)2

dz ′

Now, suppose we choose I(z ′) = I`δ(z ′). Then

ψ = I`e−jkr

4πr.

Also, we have I(kz) = I`, since the Fourier Transform of thedelta function is unity.
