An Adaptive Preconditioning Technique using Fuzzy Controller for Efficient Solution of Electric Field Integral EquationsAbstract
For efficiently solving large dense complex linear systems that arise in the electric field integral equation (EFIE) formulation of electromagnetic scattering problems, a new adaptive preconditioning technique using fuzzy controller (FC) is introduced and used in the context of the generalized minimal residual iterative method (GMRES) accelerated with the multilevel fast multipole method (MLFMM). The key idea is to control the choice of the preconditioner to be used in an iterative solver by using fuzzy controller. This approach allows the expert knowledge to be taken into account on the controller design and utilizes feedback to tune the cores of the fuzzy set. Numerical results show that the best preconditioner can be selected while maintaining low cost for adaptive procedures.
