Complete Radiation Boundary Conditions for Maxwell’s Equations
Keywords:
radiation boundary conditions, time-domain methodsAbstract
We describe the construction, analysis, and implementation of arbitrary-order local radiation boundary condition sequences for Maxwell’s equations. In particular we use the complete radiation boundary conditions which implicitly apply uniformly accurate exponentially convergent rational approximants to the exact radiation boundary conditions. Numerical experiments for waveguide and free space problems using high- order discontinuous Galerkin spatial discretizations are presented.
