This alternative approach is based on performing numerical integration of the Fock-type integrals on a deformed path on which the integrands are nonoscillatory and rapidly decaying. Comparison of this approach with the previously developed one presented in [1], which is based on invoking the Cauchy's residue theorem by finding the pole singularities numerically, reveals that the alternative approach is considerably more efficient.EnglishFock-type integralsGreen's functionsImpedance cylinderSurface fieldsUTD-based Green's functionEfficient computation of nonparaxial surface fields excited on an electrically large circular cylinder with an impedance boundary conditionArticle10.1109/TAP.2006.8807421558-2221
