Abstract :
In this paper the authors apply the Method of Moments (MoM) to the analysis of the scattering of a multilayered periodic strip grating by a plane wave with oblique incidence and arbitrary polarization. It is shown that the use of an improved MoM spatial domain approach is one order of magnitude faster than the use of the classical MoM spectral domain approach when basis functions that account for edge singularities are used in the modeling of the current density on the metallizations.
