A General Method for the Ray-Tracing on Convex Bodies.

摘要

A method to compute the ray tracing over complex bodies composed by smooth convex surfaces of arbitrary shape is presented. The bodies are assumed to be electrically large and perfectly conducting. Free-form parametric surfaces are used to describe the structures. The technique is simple and efficient, so it is suitable for complex bodies. Some results obtained with FASANT code, which implements this technique, are presented to prove the efficiency of the method.
