Abstract
The biconjugate gradient (BCG) method for solving linear systems is shown to be more efficient than the conjugate gradient (CG) method for several examples from electromagnetic scattering. A remedy for the occasional stagnation of the algorithm is proposed. The potential flaw in the BCG algorithm may be avoided when encountered by restarting the algorithm with a perturbed estimate of the solution
