MLFMA Analysis of Scattering from Multiple Targets In the Presence of a Half Space
نویسندگان
چکیده
The multi-level fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA) is applied to the analysis of planewave scattering from multiple conducting and/or dielectric targets, of arbitrary shape, situated in the presence of a dielectric half space. The multiple-target scattering problem is solved in an iterative fashion. In particular, the fields exciting each target are represented as the incident fields plus the scattered fields from all other targets. The scattered fields from each target are updated iteratively, until the induced currents on all targets have converged. The model is validated with an independent scattering algorithm, and example results are presented for several scenarios of interest to remote sensing.
