Abstract
ABSTRACT Numerical solutions for openndash;region electromagnetic problems based on differential equations require some means of truncating the computational domain. A number of local Radiation Boundary Conditions (RBCs) for general boundary shapes have been proposed during the past decade. Many are generalizations of the Baylissndash;Turkel RBC for circular truncation boundaries. Tbis paper reviews several twondash;dimensional RBCs for general truncation boundaries. The RBCs are evaluated on the basis of their performance on two separate numerical tests: the annihilation of terms in the Hankel series and the comparison of nearndash;field and radar cross sections for finite element solutions to scattering problems. These tests suggest that the simpler RBCs can be very competitive with RBCs based on more sophisticated derivations.
