Basic Applications of Integral Equations in Electromagnetics Nathaniel Burt Kansas State University Advisor: Professor Chalmers M. Butler Basic Applications of Integral Equations Background - What is an Integral Equation? A Simple Electrostatic Application Several Electrodynamic Applications Thin-wire scatterer/antenna problem and associated integro- differential equation Conclusions and Future Work Background - What is an Integral Equation? An Approximation Technique Further Details of Approximation Technique Further Details of Approximation Technique Charged Strip of Infinite Length (electrostatic) Charge Density per Unit Length on an Infinite Strip Simple Electrodynamic Applications – TMExcitation of Bodies Infinite in One Dimension TM Excitation of a Conducting Strip TM Excitation of More Complex Cylinders Approximation of Geometries for 2-D Cylinders Asymmetrical Slotted Cavity Solution Thin-Wire Scatterer/Antenna Solution of Thin-Wire Integro-Differential Equation Results of Solution Procedure for Thin Wire Conclusions and Future Work 2003 SURE Program - limits determined by physical geometry - unknown function to be determined - known “kernel” (also called a Green’s Function) - known forcing function Difficulty: possesses infinite number of unknowns Solution: discretize using series of N weighted pulses Approximation reduces problem to solving for N unknowns xm takes on N unique values within (a,b) interval, yielding N equations These “match points” (xm) lie at centers of pulse functions N summations of N terms form an NxN “impedance matrix” having  elements Recalling that and using the piecewise constant approximation of u(x), Unknown [UN] easily found using Gaussian elimination Recall piecewise constant approximation of u(x) If strip is slotted, voltage v(x) can vary over the surface Kernel is analytically integrable,  yielding matrix elements Solving for column vector ,
