Abstract
A time domain (TD) solution for the analysis of multiple diffraction of spherical waves after an array of nonperfectly conducting wedges with different interior angles is presented.The proposed TD solution is based on the representation of the inverse Laplace transform of the corresponding frequency domain solution in closed form, as it is given by a hybrid of the uniform theory of diffraction (UTD)‐physic optics (PO) solution. The new formulation, validated with the results from technical literature, does not need to incorporate the TD version of the higher‐order diffraction coefficients and allows for the calculation of large number of wedges. It has the major advantage in terms of the mathematical complexity and computation efficiency when compared with other TD solutions. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
