Traditionally, the optics and microwave communities have been separated not only by the THz band but also by differences in technical knowledge, analytical and computational approaches, design processes, and measurement methodologies. In this contribution, we aim to bridge this divide by leveraging a computational asymptotic technique from optics, known as physical optics, which holds significant potential for the microwave/antenna community. This technique allows for precise microwave calculations for radiation patterns, reflection coefficients, material losses, and mutual coupling between antennas.
