The absorbing boundaries are introduced as additional layers with predefined reflection coefficients into the calculation of the Green's functions. The Green's functions are calculated using different reflection coefficients corresponding to different absorbing boundaries and compared to those obtained with no absorbing boundary. This approach provides an absolute measure of the effectiveness of different absorbing boundaries.EnglishBoundary conditionsDifferential equationsElectromagnetic wave reflectionFinite difference methodFinite element methodGreen's functionNumerical methodsTime domain analysisAbsorbing boundary conditionsLayered mediaReflection coefficientsElectromagnetic field theoryComparative evaluation of absorbing boundary conditions using Green's functions for layered mediaConference Paper10.1109/APS.1995.529969
