Abstract
The 'asymptotic solution' for the classical electromagnetic problem of the diffraction of obliquely incident plane E-polarized waves by an infinite array of infinitely long insulating dielectric circular cylinders is investigated. Exploiting the elementary function representations of 'Schlömilch series', which was originally developed by Twersky [V. Twersky, Elementary function representations of Schlömilch series. Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. 8 (1961) 323-332.], we have obtained a 'new' set of equations describing the behavior of the 'Fourier-Bessel multiple scattering coefficients' of an infinite grating of circular dielectric cylinders for vertically polarized obliquely incident plane electromagnetic waves when the grating spacing 'd' is small compare to a wavelength. In addition, we have achieved to acquire the 'asymptotic solution for the multiple scattering coefficients of the infinite grating at oblique incidence' as a function of the ratio of the cylinder radius 'a' to grating spacing.
