Solving time domain EFIE using higher order basis functions and marching-on in degree method

Abstract

In this paper, a marching-on in degree solution to the problem of time domain electric field integer equation is presented where the higher order basis functions are employed for the spatial expansion. The marching-on in degree method can obtain a solution that is late-time stable, which is marching-on in time method cannot. Numerical result is presented to show the accuracy of the MOD method with higher order basis functions.
