While the trapezoidal formula can attain exponential convergence when applied to infinite integrals of bilateral rapidly decreasing functions, it is not capable of this in the case of unilateral rapidly decreasing functions. To address this issue, Stenger proposed the application of a conformal map to the integrand such that it transforms into bilateral rapidly decreasing functions. Okayama and Hanada modified the conformal map and provided a rigorous error bound for the modified formula. This paper proposes a further improved conformal map, with two rigorous error bounds provided for the improved formula. Numerical examples comparing the proposed and existing formulas are also given.
