Abstract

Focal region fields of perfect electromagnetic conductor (PEMC) paraboloidal reflector placed in homogenous and reciprocal chiral medium are analyzed. Maslov's method is used to derive the expressions for the focal region fields because the geometrical optics (GO) fails at these points. The results obtained by this method are solved numerically, and line plots for the reflected field of the paraboloidal PEMC reflector are obtained for di®erent values of admittance of the PEMC reflector and chirality parameter of the medium.
