Scattering of electromagnetic waves by a moving cylinder in free space is studied by an application of Lorentz transformation. It is shown that the solution in the transformed coordinates can be derived readily from a knowledge of the solution of the corresponding stationary problem. Several important characteristics of the scattered far-fields are investigated in detail for a cylinder of small radius. These include the calculation of the far-field patterns and the angular dependence of the Doppler shift.
