English: The electric field of an electromagnetic wave is shown, polarized in the plane of the monitor. Coming from a plane-wave source at the bottom of a metallic waveguide, the wave impinges a metallic obstacle, and diffracts on its edge.
Smooth transition of the metal conductivity was chosen to demonstrate diffraction on a soft aperture. The characteristic width of the transition is approximately equal to whole figure width.
