A Source Transfer Domain Decomposition Method for Time-Harmonic Maxwell’s Equations
摘要
In this paper, we develop an efficient solver for the time-harmonic Maxwell’s equations in the unbounded domain by extending the source transfer domain decomposition method (STDDM) proposed by Chen et al. The basic idea of the method is to decompose the domain into nonoverlapping layers. By constructing the source transfer operator, we ensure that the sources within each layer can be equivalently transferred to the subsequent layer. To obtain the solution, the method repeatedly applies the perfectly matched layer (PML) method, which is defined locally outside only two layers. Through this combination of layer-by-layer processing and the PML method, the solution to the entire problem can be obtained. The main difficulty in proving the convergence of STDDM is to analyze the solutions in the
