Marching On-In-Time Solution of the Time Domain Magnetic Field Integral Equation Using a Predictor-Corrector Scheme.

An explicit marching on-in-time (MOT) scheme for solving the time-domain magnetic field integral equation (TD-MFIE) is presented. The proposed MOT-TD-MFIE solver uses Rao–Wilton–Glisson basis functions for spatial discretization and a \\PE(CE)^m-type linear multistep method for time marching. Unlike previous explicit MOT-TD-MFIE solvers, the time step size can be chosen as large as that of the implicit MOT-TD-MFIE solvers without adversely affecting accuracy or stability. An algebraic stability analysis demonstrates the stability of the proposed explicit solver; its accuracy and efficiency are established via numerical examples. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
