Abstract

A simple moment solution is given for low frequency electromagnetic scattering and radiation problems. The problem is reduced to the corresponding electrostatic and magnetostatic problems. Each static problem is solved using the Method of Moments. The surface of the perfectly conducting scatterer is modeled by a set of planar triangular patches. Pulse expansion functions and point matching testing are used to compute the charge density in the electrostatic problem. For the magnetostatic current a set of charge-free vector expansion functions is used. The problem is formulated assuming the scatterer to be in an unbounded homogeneous region. Scatterers of various shapes, such as the circular disc, the sphere, and the cube are studied. Special attention is paid to a conducting box with a narrow slot. The computed results are the scattered fields, the induced charge and current distributions, and the induced electric and magnetic dipole moments. These are in close agreement with whatever published data are available.
