Scattering of a wave at a periodic boundary: Analytical expression for the surface impedance

A surface-impedance boundary condition is obtained from first principles for problems involving the scattering of two-dimensional waves by cylindrical periodical surfaces of arbitrary shape. The analysis is performed in the context of the electromagnetic theory of gratings, but it is also applicable...
