On the convergence properties of the method of auxiliary sources in 2D problems with open boundaries

Year: 2003

Type: article

Abstract: In this paper, the convergence properties of the method of auxiliary sources (MAS) when applied to two‐dimensional (2D) problems with open boundaries are studied. Although such problems have been examined in the past, the relation of the solution errors with the sources' locations has not been reported in detail. Herein, the convergence behavior in the case of a single infinite wire above a flat ground is thoroughly examined. The dependence of the boundary‐condition errors on the number and spacing of the auxiliary sources is illustrated and general rules that govern their behavior are extracted. Finally, a few concluding remarks are outlined and their utilization for the advancement of the MAS is briefly discussed. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 39: 518–522, 2003
