Electromagnetic Field Computation by Network Methods [Hardcover]

Leopold B. Felsen (Author), Mauro Mongiardo (Author), Peter Russer (Author)

Book Description

ISBN-10: 3540939458 | ISBN-13: 978-3540939450 | Publication Date: March 17, 2009 | Edition: 1

In this monograph, the authors propose a systematic and rigorous treatment of electromagnetic field representations in complex structures. The architecture suggested in this book accommodates use of different numerical methods as well as alternative Green's function representations in each of the subdomains resulting from a partitioning of the overall problem. The subdomains are regions of space where electromagnetic energy is stored and are described in terms of equivalent circuit representations based either on lumped element circuits or on transmission lines. Connection networks connect the subcircuits representing the subdomains. The connection networks are lossless, don't store energy and represent the overall problem topology. This is similar to what is done in circuit theory and permits a phrasing of the solution of EM field problems in complex structures by Network-oriented methods.
