| Summary: | We consider the problem of electromagnetic propagation along a wire which passes through an aperture. We begin by formulating an integral equation in terms of the electric field at the aperture. The solution of the integral equation allows us to determine parameters of interest such as the equivalent admittance, the current on the wire, and the electric field. We solve the integral equation using both a zeroth order and method of moments approximation for the aperture field. From this we are able to compute the admittance and current in the frequency domain. We next calculate the current response to a transient pulse excitation. The results show that the screen provides little shielding from pulse penetration along the wire. Finally, we calculate solutions for the electric field. The results are given in several contour plots.
