摘要
An iterative strategy combining Kirchhoff approximation(KA) with the hybrid finite element-boundary integral(FE-BI) method is presented in this paper to study the interactions between the inhomogeneous object and the underlying rough surface.KA is applied to study scattering from underlying rough surfaces,whereas FE-BI deals with scattering from the above target.Both two methods use updated excitation sources.Huygens equivalence principle and an iterative strategy are employed to consider the multi-scattering effects.This hybrid FE-BI-KA scheme is an improved and generalized version of previous hybrid Kirchhoff approximation-method of moments(KA-MoM).This newly presented hybrid method has the following advantages:(1) the feasibility of modeling multi-scale scattering problems(large scale underlying surface and small scale target);(2) low memory requirement as in hybrid KA-MoM;(3) the ability to deal with scattering from inhomogeneous(including coated or layered) scatterers above rough surfaces.The numerical results are given to evaluate the accuracy of the multi-hybrid technique;the computing time and memory requirements consumed in specific numerical simulation of FE-BI-KA are compared with those of MoM.The convergence performance is analyzed by studying the iteration number variation caused by related parameters.Then bistatic scattering from inhomogeneous object of different configurations above dielectric Gaussian rough surface is calculated and the influences of dielectric compositions and surface roughness on the scattering pattern are discussed.

Both two methods use updated excitation sources. Huygens equivalence principle and an iterative strategy are employed to consider the multi-scattering effects. This hybrid FE-BI-KA scheme is an improved and generalized version of previous hybrid Kirchhoff approximation-method of moments (KA-MoM). This newly presented hybrid method has the following advantages: (1) the feasibility of modeling multi-scale scattering problems (large scale underlying surface and small scale target); (2) low memory requirement as in hybrid KA-MoM; (3) the ability to deal with scattering from inhomogeneous (including coated or layered) scatterers above rough surfaces. The numerical results are given to evaluate the accuracy of the multi-hybrid technique; the computing time and memory requirements consumed in specific numerical simulation of FE-BI-KA are compared with those of MoM. The convergence performance is analyzed by studying the iteration number variation caused by related parameters. Then bistatic scattering from inhomogeneous object of different configurations above dielectric Gaussian rough surface is calculated and the influences of dielectric compositions and surface roughness on the scattering pattern are discussed.
