  • Abstract
    An improved algorithm for efficiently computing a sinusoid and an exponential integral commonly encountered in method-of-moments solutions is presented. The new algorithm has been tested for accuracy and computer execution time against both numerical integration and other existing numerical algorithms, and has outperformed them. Typical execution time comparisons on several computers are given
