Abstract :
This paper describes a meshless approach to obtain accurate solutions for propagating microwave problems. The Meshless Local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) method, with the Heaviside step test functions and Radial basis point interpolation method (RPIM) shape functions, is used. Results are obtained for a two-dimensional model and are compared with a consolidated Finite Element Method (FEM).
