Electromagnetic Scattering Analysis of Arbitrary Structures by the Natural Element Method Coupled With Absorbing Boundary Condition

摘要

The problem of determining the electromagnetic scattering of arbitrary structures consisting of both dielectric and conducting materials are analyzed in this paper by the natural-element method coupled with the absorbing boundary condition (NEM-ABC). By this method, the target is first enclosed by a fictitious boundary. Maxwell’s equations are then solved by NEM inside and ABC is applied on the fictitious boundary. The results are compared with analytical and finite-element method-ABC ones which show the robustness, applicability and relevance of the method.
