In this paper, we analyzed the pulse responses of dispersion medium with periodically conducting strips by using a fast inversion Laplace transform (FILT) method combined with point matching method (PMM) for both the TM and TE cases. Specifically, we investigated the influence of the width and number of the conducting strips on the pulse response and distribution of the electric field.

We have proposed a new method for the scattering of electromagnetic waves by inhomogeneous dielectric gratings loaded with parallel perfectly conducting strips using the combination of improved Fourier series expansion method and point matching method. Numerical results aregiven for the transmission and scattering characteristics for TE and TM cases.
