A new iterative method for scattering problems

Abstract

A new iterative method for scatterng problems is presented. This method is based on the tact that cutoff waves excited by a given source are shunted by pure reactive impedance and we consider that such waves come back to the source. This approach is applied to many scattering problems by perfectly conducting bodies and seems to be efficient, particularly in the range where the obstace dimensions are comparable to the wavelength. SummaryIterative methods have been developed in the

Analysis of multilayer substrates by multilayer contribution of wave concept iterative process

“…The incident and reflected waves can be expressed as a function of the electric field E i and current density J i at the plane ⍀. It leads to the following set of equations [7]:…”

A Fast Hybrid Wcip and FDTLM Approach to Study Inhomogeneous Circuits

“…n is the outward unit vector normal to the considered interface. The analytical expression of the iterative process involves a system of two equations: one written in the spatial domain (2), characterizing the boundary conditions at the interface of the structure through the operatorŜ; the other expressed in the modal domain (3), describing the upper and lower media through the operatorΓ [13]. A Fast Modal Transform (F M T ), and its inverse (F M T −1 ), ensure conversions between both domains [14].…”

“…The Wave Concept Iterative Procedure (WCIP) is a method of moments [1], based on waves concept first introduced by Baudrand in 1995 [2,3]. It consists of electromagnetic fields combined to define incident and reflected waves around circuits interfaces.…”

A new computationally efficient hybrid fdtLM–WCIP method

“…The limitation of the WCIP method is the modelling of non-homogeneous media materials. The concept of the WCIP method was first introduced by Azizi et al (1995).…”
