초록

본 논문에서는 주파수 영역에서 3차원 임의형태의 유전체 산란 해석을 위하여 다양한 결합 적분방정식(combined field integral equation, CFIE)의 구성을 제안한다. 서로 다른 시험 함수의 조합으로 8 가지의 CFIE를 제안하였다. 본 논문의 목적 중의 하나는 제안된 모든 CFIE가 구조물의 내부공진 주파수에서 공진문제를 극복하지 못함을 보이는 것이다. 또한 이 8가지의 CFIE는 네 개의 항으로 구성되는데, 이 중에서 하나를 무시하는 방법으로 16가지의 새로운 CFIE를 제안하였다. 수치 예로서 유전체로부터의 원거리장과 레이다 단면적(radar cross section, RCS) 계산 결과들을 보이며, 제안되는 각 CFIE의 동작 특성을 비교하여 고찰하였다.

In this paper, we present various combined field integral equation (CFIE) formulations for the analysis of electromagnetic scattering from arbitrarily shaped three dimensional homogeneous dielectric body in the frequency domain. For the CFIE case, we propose eight separate formulations with different combinations of testing functions that result in sixteen different formulations of CFIE by neglecting one of testing terms. One of the objectives of this paper is to illustrate that not all CFIE are valid methodologies in removing defects, which occur at a frequency corresponding to an internal resonance of the structure. Numerical results involving far scattered fields and radar cross section (RCS) are presented for a dielectric sphere to illustrate which formulation works and which do not.
