Abstract
The properties of different forms of the combined field integral equation (CFIE) formulation of electromagnetic scattering from convex, perfect electrically conducting geometries are considered. Several difficulties encountered in the numerical implementation of the traditional CFIEs of electromagnetic scattering theory are discussed. An alternate form of the CFIE is introduced which is free of many of the deficiencies of traditional formulations for smooth, convex geometries. The improved numerical properties of the new formulation are illustrated with numerical examples.
