MoM impedance integrals in conductive media

During the past decades, much research has been done towards the efficient calculation of impedance integrals in the Method of Moments. However, these results were almost always uniquely concerned with penetrable media. In this contribution, it will be shown how the integrals can be treated in highly conductive media as well. The rapid exponential decline of the Green´s function, due to the losses, is the root of all additional complexities. The method as presented here takes care of these problems in a scalable way, i.e. the computation time becomes independent of the conductivity of the material. It is not meant as a replacement for techniques in penetrable media, due to some additional costs, but is - to our knowledge - the only approach that currently exists to efficiently handle conductive media. This paper presents the ideas and techniques in a fairly condensed manner. More information can be found in [1].
