A convergence theorem for the fast multipole method for 2 dimensional scattering problems

چکیده

The Fast Multipole Method (FMM) designed by V. Rokhlin rapidly computes the field scattered from an obstacle. This computation consists of solving an integral equation on the boundary of the obstacle. The main result of this paper shows the convergence of the FMM for the two dimensional Helmholtz equation. Before giving the theorem, we give an overview of the main ideas of the FMM. This is done following the papers of V. Rokhlin. Nevertheless, the way we present the FMM is slightly different. The FMM is finally applied to an acoustic problem with an impedance boundary condition. The moment method is used to discretize this continuous problem.

A New Guideline for the Allocation of Multipoles in the Multiple Multipole Method for Two Dimensional Scattering from Dielectrics

A new guideline for proper allocation of multipoles in the multiple multipole method (MMP) is proposed. In an ‘a posteriori’ approach, subspace fitting (SSF) is used to find the best location of multipole expansions for the two dimensional dielectric scattering problem. It is shown that the best location of multipole expansions (regarding their global approximating power) coincides with the med...

Combining Osrc Preconditioning and Fast Multipole Method for the Helmholtz Equation

Talk Abstract The numerical solution of time-harmonic scattering problems remains a challenging problem in the high frequency regime due to its specific computational bottlenecks. The techniques based on integral equations lead to the resolution of systems where the involved matrices are dense and usually badly conditioned. Several studies have been managed for years and years to overcome these...

A Multilevel Fast Multipole Based Approach for Eecient Reconstruction of Perfectly Conducting Scatterers

A nonlinear reconstruction scheme based on the Distorted Born Iterative Method (DBIM) is presented to solve two-dimensional inverse scattering problems with metallic scatterers. Half-quadratic regularization alleviates the inherently ill-posed problem of nonlinear inverse scattering while simultaneously preserving edges. Reconstruction results are found by minimizing a cost function. A bistatic...
