Graduate Spatial Fourier Transform: Bessel x Sinusoidal

[tworitdash]

TL;DR

I am trying to formulate an analytical expression for the spectrum of the electric fields on a circular aperture (cylindrical waveguide). The field expressions are a multiplication of Bessel function and sinusoidal function. I am attaching only one kind of integration that I have.

I(k_x, k_y) = \int_{0}^{R} \int_{0}^{2\pi} J_{m-1}(\alpha \rho) \sin((m + 1) \phi) e^{j\rho(k_x \cos\phi + k_y \sin\phi)} \rho d\rho d\phiIs there any way to do it? J is the Bessel function of the first kind. I thought of partially doing only the phi integral as \int_{0}^{2\pi} \sin((m + 1) \phi) e^{j\rho(k_x \cos\phi + k_y \sin\phi)} d\phi but then again I am not able to find any solution.

You can definitely do the $\phi$ integral - I have been doing a lot of similar integrals recently. What you want to do is define $k_x = k \cos\psi$ and $k_y = k \sin\psi$, and split up the $\sin$ into complex exponentials. Then you get integrals of the form,
$$ \begin{eqnarray*}
\mathcal{I}^{\pm} & = & \int_0^{2\pi} \, e^{\pm j (m+1) \phi} \, e^{j k \cos(\phi-\psi)} \, d\phi \\
& = & e^{\pm j (m+1) \psi} \int_0^{2\pi} \, e^{\pm j (m+1) (\phi-\psi)} \, e^{j k \cos(\phi-\psi)} \, d\phi \\
& = & e^{\pm j (m+1) \psi} \int_{-\psi}^{2\pi-\psi} \, e^{\pm j (m+1) \xi} \, e^{j k \cos\xi} \, d\xi
\end{eqnarray*}
$$

To proceed you need the integral,
$$ J_\ell(\beta) = \frac{1}{2\pi j^\ell} \int_0^{2\pi} \, e^{j \ell \phi} \, e^{j \beta \cos\phi} \, d\phi
$$
which commonly occurs in these kinds of problems. Note that this is the integral of a periodic function over one period, so the result does not depend on which period you integrate over.

The integral over $\rho$ is harder, because you have an integrand that is basically $\rho \, J_{m-1}(a\rho) \, J_{\pm(m+1)}(b\rho)$. Similar integrals can be found at DLMF (https://dlmf.nist.gov/10.22), but the exact integral is not there. Perhaps you can use recurrence relations for the $J_n$ to get this into a form where you can do this closed-form? If not, then you may be stuck doing numerical integration, which should be pretty easy as the integrand is well behaved.

By the way, the integral representation of the Bessel function above follows from the expression
$$
e^{- j z \cos\phi} = \sum_{n=-\infty}^\infty j^{-n} e^{j n \phi}\, J_n(z).
$$
You could have also just used this expansion in your original integral and of course ended up with the same result.

Thank you so much for the inputs @jasonRF . I will try. Previously I was successful with the integration of the product of Bessel functions. So, probably for the \rho variations, I can formulate something with Lommel's integral. I hope I can see some light at the end! :)
