In this article, the unidirectional current screen was used as an asymptotic strip boundary condition (ASBC) for analysis of field problems containing metal strip grids.
Abstract
We discuss the unidirectional current screen as an asymptotic strip boundary condition (ASBC) for analysis of field problems containing metal strip grids, and we introduce a related asymptotic corrugation boundary condition (ACBC) for analysis of corrugated surfaces. The boundary conditions are asymptotic in the sense that the exact boundary conditions approach the asymptotic ones when the strip and corrugation periods approach zero. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Electromagnetic scattering from BOR objects loaded with periodic conducting narrow strips using asymptotic boundary conditions

TL;DR: In this article, the ASBC method is verified by using it to obtain the scattering fields from objects and comparing them with those obtained using the exact boundary conditions, where the strips are tangential to the surface and either in the circumferential direction or orthogonal to it.
