The line integral is generalized for arbitrary resistive surface with edge discontinuity. The method is applied to the diffraction problem of waves by a convex resistive spherical reflector and the resultant field expressions are investigated numericallyeninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessBoundary Diffraction WavePhysical OpticsResistive SurfacesArticle284225269527410.1016/j.optcom.2011.07.068
