Abstract :
A finite-element method (FEM)-based hybrid method (or iterative FEM) is successfully applied to a three-dimensional (3-D) scattering problem without the effect of internal resonance. With only a small number of meshes around a 3-D scatterer, this FEM is shown to give an accurate result through several iterative updates of the boundary conditions. To confirm the efficiency of this method, scattering from a 3-D cavity-backed aperture is analyzed and the results obtained are compared with the same obtained by another conventional method
