Abstract

In the characteristic basis function method (CBFM) for the wide-angle electromagnetic scattering problems of electrically large objects, the low generation efficiency, and many characteristic basis functions exist due to the dependence on external excitation. This paper proposes a characteristic mode basis function method (CMBFM) with novel basis function construction to address this issue. In CMBFM, characteristic modes of each extended block obtained by dividing objects are calculated separately, and then the effective modes are selected as basis functions according to the modal significance. Compared with CBFM, the time performance of constructing basis functions is improved significantly. Furthermore, fewer basis functions are generated without a loss of accuracy. The corresponding numerical results demonstrate that significant efficiency and accuracy can be achieved by the proposed approach.
