Abstract
Comments on the paper by Mosig (IEEE Antennas and Propagation Magazine, vol.47, p.38-40, 2005 December). The paper by Mosig discussed acceleration of convergence of series. Without commenting on either the validity or efficiency of his method, the present author would like to draw attention to an existing method, published long ago by D. Shanks (1955). Briefly stated, this method takes a sequence and defines partial sums, which is described in this paper
