RCS2D: A 2D Scattering Simulator for MoM vs. FDTD Comparisons
Keywords:
Electromagnetic waves, FDTD, MoM, radar cross section (RCS), scattering, TM, TEAbstract
A Java-based, two dimensional (2D) electromagnetic wave scattering and Radar Cross- Section (RCS) simulation software, RCS2D Virtual Tool, is developed. Both Method of Moments (MoM) and Finite-Difference Time- Domain (FDTD) methods are used to simulate the Transverse Magnetic (TM) and Transverse Electric (TE) polarized scattering waves for arbitrary geometries and materials under the plane wave illumination.
