The multiple scattering by two parallel conducting circular cylinders is considered. The total scattered field is divided into two components, namely a noninteraction term and a term due to all interactions between the cylinders. The noninteraction term is expressed exactly, whereas the interaction field is evaluated using the method of moments. It is found that this technique leads to an efficient solution for both the monostatic and bistatic scattering by cylinders of large radii. The computational advantages of this technique over classical boundary value and numerical solutions are presented.
