FEI3304 Integral Equations in Electromagnetics 6.0 credits

Numerical methods for analyzing scattering of electromagnetic waves from objects with complicated shape 

After completion of the course the student shall be able to

• explain briefly the Fredholm theory for integral equations 
• derive electromagnetic representation formulas, from generalized  Green formulas,   
• derive line, surface, and volume integral equations   
• discretize integral equations into matrix equations 
• explain some methods for improved and accelerated convergence 

If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.

• EXA1 - Examination, 6.0 credits, grading scale: P, F

Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.

The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.

Four home‐assignments: 

1. Electrostatic or magnetostatic problem 
2. Thin‐wire antenna 
3. Scattering from metallic or homogeneous object 
4. Scattering from heterogeneous object 

Satisfactory performance in all home‐assignments. Oral presentation of one assignment.
