EFIE Modeling of High-Definition Multiscale Structures

Abstract
We propose a method to significantly improve the spectral properties of the EFIE MoM matrix for broad-band analysis of structures with fine details, non-uniform meshes, and large overall sizes. A multilevel approach allows to overlay fine meshes and quasi-Nyquist sampled meshes; the fine-mesh conditioning is solved via hierarchical basis functions, and the quasi-Nyquist sampled part is treated by an algebraic incomplete LU preconditioner. Numerical results show the effectiveness of the approach for several realistic structures with overall sizes of ten/twenty wavelengths and levels of detail from very moderate to extending over the whole structure.
