Abstract

It is well known that the electric field integral equation (EFIE) has the low frequency breakdown problem while the Augmented electric field integral equation (AEFIE) method has the high frequency breakdown issue. To obtain a unified method that works for both low and high frequencies without manual switching of methods, a novel and simple method is proposed in this paper. It uses AEFIE and EFIE to compensate each other iteratively in all frequency regimes to guarantee the accuracy of the solution. As a result, it effectively extends AEFIE to the high frequency regime and extends EFIE to the low frequency regime. Numerical results demonstrated that this alternative AEFIE-EFIE method is able to extend integral equations to broad band applications. © 2012 IEEE.
