A Minimum Boundary Condition Error Algorithm for Thin Wire Radiation and Scattering Problems.

Abstract

This report contains results of numerical tests on a method of moments algorithm for the solution of thin wire radiation and scattering problems. The algorithm has convergence behavior similar to a highly overdetermined field point matching scheme. It has been assumed, therefore, that information about the range of applicability of overdetermined wire formulations can be inferred from the results of these tests. Unfortunately, in the tests performed so far, the algorithm has proven to be generally inferior to the other formulations tested. The report is divided into three sections. The algorithm, called MBCRE (for Minimum Boundary Condition Residual Error) is described in Section I. Section II explains the test result tables and also the connection between the MBCRE algorithm and overdetermined point matching schemes. Section III is a listing of the computer program used for the tests. (Author)
