Abstract: This paper presents an efficient method for solution of electromagnetic scattering problems of obliquely incident pulse plane wave on a revolution body with finite-difference time-domain method.The incident pulse plane wave is expanded in cylindrical coordinates and total-field/scattered-field formulation is used to introduce the extended plane wave as the excitation.Scattering from limited length perfect closed cylinder conductor with oblique incidence plane wave is simulated using this method.We validated our implementation of the method by comparing the results with those obtained by the method of moments.The results show both in excellent agreement.
