A Higher Order Nyström TD-VIE Method for Scattering From Magnetized Plasma Objects

A higher order locally corrected Nyström (LCN) time-domain volume-integral equation method is proposed to analyze transient electromagnetic scattering from anisotropic magnetized plasma objects. In spatial domain, the higher order LCN method is applied to discretize magnetized plasma objects, and the Lagrange interpolation polynomials are used to represent spatial basis functions. In temporal domain, the marching-on-in-time scheme is applied, and the triangle functions are used to represent temporal basis functions. Numerical results validate that the proposed method is accurate.
