Efficient analysis of large phased arrays using iterative MoM with DFT-based acceleration algorithm

Abstract

A discrete Fourier transform (DFT)-based iterative method of moments (IMoM) algorithm is developed to provide an O(Ntot) computational complexity and memory storages for the efficient analysis of electromagnetic radiation/scattering from large phased arrays. Here, Ntot is the total number of unknowns. Numerical results for both printed and free-standing dipole arrays are presented to validate the algorithm's efficiency and accuracy.
