Abstract

This paper describes a full wave analysis of the scattering from electromagnetic absorbers which can be approximated as infinite periodic structure using hybrid finite element method. By introducing fictitious boundaries, equivalent finite region is defined and proper boundary conditions of each boundary are obtained by Floquet theorem. Since higher-order Floquet modes are employed, the method presented in this paper can be readily applied to the periodic structure haying a relatively long period. To reduce difficulty in evaluating the surface integral, the normal component to the surface were represented with the tangential component to the surface. Comparisons of calculated results with analytical or published ones show the validation of the method.

본 논문에서는 무한 주기구조로 근사할 수 있는 전파 흡수체의 전파특성을 혼성 유한요소법을 이용하여 해석한 결과를 기술하였다. 가상의 경계면을 설정하여 유한한 영역을 정의하였고, 영역의 각각의 경계면에서 유효한 경계조건을 Floquet 이론으로부터 유도하였다. 고차 Floquet 모드가 사용되었으므로, 본 논문에서의 방법은 파장에 비교할 수 있을 정도로 큰 주기를 가진 구조의 경우에도 적용이 가능하다. 표면적분 계산의 어려움을 줄이기 위해 표면에 수직인 전자계 성분을 표면에 수평인 성분으로 표현하였다. 계산된 결과를 해석적인 해 또는 기존에 발표된 결과와 비교하여 해석의 유효성을 증명하였다.
