An numerical technique of impedance boundary condition to improve an efficiency in the process of moment method with CFIE(Combined Field Integral Equation), which is widely used to analyze the scattering property of dielectric scatterers, and results of its cross-validations are presented in this study. Application of the impedance boundary allows to represent the equivalent surface currents of dielectric scatterer depicted by both kinds of electric/magnetic surface currents(Js, Ms) to the single surface current by Js or Ms only. Accuracy of this technique is validated by the existing CFIE and theoretical values such as Mie-series solution and small perturbation scattering model. The computational difference of less than 1 dB was verified within an imaginary part of dielectric constant more than 12, as well.

The electromagnetic wave scattering problems from inhomogeneous material bodies are considered. The formulation is made in terms of mixed potentials for the moment methods (MoM). The surfaces of a three-dimensional inhomogeneous scatterer of arbitrary shape are divide into triangular patches for descretization. Application of the boundary conditions leads to the coupled surface integral equations to be satisfied for the unknown surface equivalent electric and magnetic currents. The radar cross-section (RCS) for some structures is computed and the results are compared with the reported data.

In this Paper, we propose a time-domain magnetic field integral equation (TD-MFIE) formulation for analyzing the transient electromagnetic response from three-dimensional (3-D) dielectric bodies. The solution method in this paper is based on the Galerkin's method that involves separate spatial and temporal testing procedures. Triangular patch basis functions are used for spatial expansion and testing functions for arbitrarily shaped 3-D dielectric structures. The time-domain unknown coefficients of the equivalent electric and magnetic currents are approximated tv a set of orthonormal basis function that is derived from the Laguerre polynomials. These basis functions are also used for the temporal testing. Numerical results computed by the proposed method are presented and compared.

In this paper, new algorithm which calculates transmission coefficient of electromagnetic wave by numerical analysis of scattered field by conductors with arbitrary cross-sections in parallel-plate waveguide is proposed. Proposed algorithm assumes magnetic current distribution on the boundary of scattering conductors, and applies Image theorem to perfect conductor surfaces of parallel-plate waveguide. Integral equations for fictitious magnetic currents on conducting boundary are set up. Magnetic current distributions on conducting boundary are expanded as exponential basis function, and using Galerkin method matrix equations are set wp. To compute matrix elements this method utilizes Fourier transform which is faster than numerical integration. Finally, frequency and incidence-angle characteristic of transmission coefficient are calculated and compared with experimental results.

A rigorous formulation is suggested〔l,2,3〕 in solving the scattering of plane waves by a dielectric wedge. Correcting surface currents are expanded in a Neumann series of fractional orders to meet the edge condition of static limit〔4〕. For the better converging series, the modified Neumann series satisfying the static limit edge condition and the radiation condition are suggested here for the surface currents having two different wave numbers of air and dielectric〔4〕. This representation gives accurate solutions over the whole region including the grazing incidence of the plane waves upon the dielectric wedge of large permittivities.

This paper mainly focuses on the conceptual design and stealth performance of the three-surface military aircraft. A three-dimensional (3-D) digital mock-up of the three-surface strike fighter with stealth feature was designed and the schemes of carrying missiles were analyzed in CATIA. Based on physical optics principle and the Method of Equivalent Currents (MEC), a numerical simulation of the RCS feature of the aircraft was carried out with RCSPlus which is a software designed by Beihang University. The paper contributes to the RCS feature analysis of the whole plane and different parts on X-band, S-band and UHF-band and a comparison of RCS feature to Su-37 and T-50 military aircraft is drawn. On X-band, the pitch angle of the incident wave was $0^{\circ}$, and the result shows: (1) Compared with Su-37 aircraft, the forward scattering RCS of the three-surface strike aircraft was reduced to 14.9%, the side scattering RCS to 9.6% and the back scattering RCS to 40.2%. (2) Compared with T-50 aircraft, the forward scattering RCS was reduced to 38.61%, and the side scattering RCS to 67.26%. This paper should be useful for researchers in conceptual design and stealth technology of the military aircraft.

Efficient numerical method is developed for treating electromagnetic problems of scattering and radiation from surfaces. Special consideration is given to the treatment of edges so that rather arbitrary geometrical configurations may be handled. For the conducting body problems considered, an electric field integral formulation is used, and the method of moments is applied using pulse expantions to present currents. Numerial results indicate that the approach is free os anomalies in the behavior of current for body of revoution.

The method of moments (MoM) is implemented to simulate scattering from a PEC (perfectly electric conductor) cylinder in the TE(transversw electric) EFIE (Electric Field Integral Equation) approach. The procedure expresses the singularity integral and the hypersingularity integral in terms of an analytic function and employs a singularity isolation process coupled with numerical technique along the discretized segment to evaluate the self terms. It is known that, in the MoM technique, the choice of base functions and test functions is very important for the accuracy and convergence of the numerical analysis. Thus, in this paper, three conditions, obtained from the combination of basis functions and test functions, are adopted to get the induced currents on the PEC surface. These currents are compared to the analytical one in the relative rms current error to get the condition that shows fast convergence rate. The fast order of convergence of the current error, 2.528, is obtained under the combination of pulse basis function/delta test function.

To observe the superconducting current and structural properties of high critical temperature ($T_c$) superconductors (HTS), we suggest the following imaging methods: Room temperature imaging (RTI) through thermal heating, low-temperature bolometric microscopy (LTBM) and Raman scattering imaging. RTI and LTBM images visualize thermal-electric voltages as different thermal gradients at room temperature (RT) and superconducting current dissipation at near-$T_c$, respectively. Using RTI, we can obtain structural information about the surface uniformity and positions of impurities. LTBM images show the flux flow in two dimensions as a function of the local critical currents. Raman imaging is transformed from Raman survey spectra in particular areas, and the Raman vibration modes can be combined. Raman imaging can quantify the vibration modes of the areas. Therefore, we demonstrate the spatial transport properties of superconducting materials by combining the results. In addition, this enables visualization of the effect of current flow on the distribution of impurities in a uniform superconducting crystalline material. These imaging methods facilitate direct examination of the local properties of superconducting materials and wires.

In this paper, we analysis the electromagnetic scattering of an arbitrary shape dielectric cube subjected to plane wave incidence in three dimensions. MoM(Method of Moments)in which a surface of a body is divided with small triangular patches and equivalence principle are used to fuse the PMCHW(Poggio, Miller, Chang, Harrington, and Wu) Integral Equations with respect to equivalent currents on a dielectric body. Triangular patch and loop-patch basis functions that is robust in wide frequency ranges are used for MoM formulations. Proposed method is very useful to analysis the induced current of arbitrary dielectric bodies and numerical results for a dielectric cube are presented.
