Efficient evaluation of reaction integrals in the EFIE analysis of planar layered structures with uniaxial anisotropy. IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques, 50 (9), 2142-2146.0018-94801557-9670https://hdl.handle.net/11441/98867This paper presents an efficient implementation of the electric-field integral-equation (EFIE) method to deal with planar anisotropic layered printed structures. A convenient treatment of the kernel of the integral equation gives rise to reaction integrals that only involve quasi-singularities and R -1-type singularities. When the well-known Rao-Wilton-Glisson triangular basis functions are used in conjunction with the Galerkin's method, closed-form expressions are found for the singular parts of the self-reaction integrals, as well as for the inner convolution integrals of the remaining singular/quasi-singular reaction integrals. Thus, the present procedure sets the EFIE method as a competitive alternative to other formulations.application/pdf5 p.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/AnisotropyDyadic Green's functionEFIEPlanar structuresinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttps://doi.org/10.1109/TMTT.2002.802327
