Abstract
We investigate the electromagnetic modeling of plane-wave diffraction by nonperiodic surfaces by using the curvilinear coordinate method (CCM). This method is often used with a Fourier basis expansion, which results in the periodization of both the geometry and the electromagnetic field. We write the CCM in a complex coordinate system in order to introduce the perfectly matched layer concept in a simple and efficient way. The results, presented for a perfectly conducting surface, show the efficiency of the model.
