This research investigates scattering of surface waves by obstacles             among dielectric waveguides.  The work embraces both theoretical and            experimental studies of related scattering phenomena and is relevant to         the study of guided-wave phenomena in both uniformly-clad and                   integrated surface-waveguide structures for millimeter and optical              wavelengths.  The methods are applicable as well to the scattering of           waves along inherently simpler mm-wave microstrip-based circuits.  An           exact integral-operator description provides a new technique for the            study of surface-wave scattering including mode conversion and                  radiation by dielectric obstacles having arbitrary shapes and                   refractive-index profiles.  The analytical studies will be supported            and guided by measurements at millimeter wavelengths using a complete-          V-band millimeter-wave instrumentation setup.
