The adaptive cross approximation (ACA) algorithm, when used to accelerate the numerical solution of integral equations for radiation and scattering problems, sometimes suffers from inaccuracies. These inaccuracies occur when the ACA convergence criterion, which is based on an approximation of the residual relative error, is prematurely satisfied. This paper identifies the two sources of this problem and proposes adaptations of the algorithm that remedy them.
