Abstract
A method for the rigorous computation of the electromagnetic scattering of large dielectric volumes is presented. One goal is to simplify the analysis of large dielectric targets with translational symmetries taken advantage of their Toeplitz symmetry. Then, the matrix-fill stage of the Method of Moments is efficiently obtained because the number of coupling terms to compute is reduced. The Multilevel Fast Multipole Method is applied to solve the problem. Structured meshes are obtained efficiently to approximate the dielectric volumes. The regular mesh grid is achieved by using parallelepipeds whose centres have been identified as internal to the target. The ray casting algorithm is used to classify the parallelepiped centres. It may become a bottleneck when too many points are evaluated in volumes defined by parametric surfaces, so a hierarchical algorithm is proposed to minimize the number of evaluations. Measurements and analytical results are included for validation purposes.
