Abstract

In this paper, we propose a parallel Schwarz generalized eigen-oscillation spectral element method (GeSEM) for 2-D complex Helmholtz equations in high frequency wave scattering in dispersive inhomogeneous media. This method is based on the spectral expansion of complex generalized eigen-oscillations for the electromagnetic fields and the Schwarz non-overlapping domain decomposition iteration method. The GeSEM takes advantages of a special real orthogonality property of the complex eigen-oscillations and a new radiation interface condition for the system of equations for the spectral expansion coefficients. Numerical results validate the high resolution and the flexibility of the method for various materials.
