Transient scattering from three-dimensional conducting bodies by using magnetic field integral equation

In this paper, we present a time-domain magnetic field integral equation (TD-MFIE) to obtain the transient scattering response from three-dimensional closed conducting bodies. The formulation is described for explicit and implicit solutions. This approach results in accurate and comparably stable transient responses from conducting scatterers. Detailed mathematical steps are included, and several numerical results axe presented and compared with results from a time-domain electric field integral equation (TD-EFIE) and the inverse Fourier transform solution of the frequency domain results.
