Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 5Scattering of Plane Waves at the Junction of Two Corrugated Half-Planes(Taylor & Francis inc, 2005) Serbest, AH; Kara, A; Lueneburg, EIn this paper, the boundary conditions given by Weinstein ( 1969) are employed to simulate two corrugated half-planes with the same slot height but different slot width. The scattering mechanism at the junction of these half-planes is investigated via the Fourier transform technique, which leads to two coupled Wiener - Hopf equations. The solution of the Wiener - Hopf system is obtained by the Daniele - Khrapkov method and some numerical results are presented about the analysis of the scattered field.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Roof Shape Modelling for Multiple Diffraction Loss in Cellular Mobile Communication Systems(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2002) Kara, A; Yazgan, EThe effects of roof shapes on multiple diffraction loss in cellular mobile communication systems are investigated. Building roofs are modelled as finitely conducting wedges with different, included angles (peaked roofs). Multiple diffraction loss, a measure of diffraction loss due to multiple building geometry, is computed by using the method of UTD (uniform theory of diffraction) for 90degrees and 120degrees wedges over the communication paths oblique to building blocks. The results, compared with the absorbing edge model, 0degrees wedge, show that multiple diffraction loss decreases with increasing wedge angle.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 17Limit and Application Range of the Slope-Diffraction Method for Wireless Communications(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2003) Kara, A; Bertoni, HL; Yazgan, ELimitations on the use of the uniform theory of diffraction (UTD) slope-diffraction. method for propagation past knife edges are investigated. The settled field that is diffracted past rows of buildings, as computed by numerical integration, has the characteristics of amplitude and phase variation with a scale length that is large compared to wavelength and,has small amplitude near the edges. Using this field, it is shown that the error in the UTD slope-diffraction method for diffraction past a final screen is connected with the Fresnel width, as compared to the scale length of the settled
