Abstract

AbstractThe translation matrix for the multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA) in an FISC (fast Illinois solver code) is calculated directly, and the complexity is O(N3/2), where N is the number of unknowns. For a problem with a small electrical size, the CPU time for calculating the translation matrix can be negligible. But for large problems, the calculation time increases significantly. In this paper, we use interpolation to calculate the translation matrix, and the complexity is reduced to O(N). Different interpolation techniques are tested, and it is found that the Lagrange polynomial interpolation with high sampling rates is the best. The saving factor is 10 for the VFY218 at 4 GHz. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 30: 109–114, 2001.
