Using an integral equation approach, we investigate the reflection of focus wave modes on conventional and time reversal mirrors when the total field, incident plus reflected, satisfies on these mirrors the Neumann boundary condition. It is also shown that the form of the incident pulse as a function of time has a strong effect on the behavior of time reversal mirrors.
