A boundary integral method for 3D nonuniform dielectric waveguide problems via the windowed Green function
share
This paper proposes an efficient boundary-integral based "windowed Green function" methodology (WGF) for the numerical solution of three-dimensional electromagnetic problems containing dielectric waveguides. The approach, which generalizes a two-dimensional version of the method introduced recently, provides a highly effective solver for general electromagnetic problems containing waveguides. In particular, using an auxiliary integral representation, the proposed method is able to accurately model incident mode excitation. On the basis of a smooth window function, the integral operators along the infinite waveguide boundaries are smoothly truncated, resulting in errors that decay faster than any negative power of the window size.
