On the Study of the Electromagnetic Scattering by Large Obstacle Based on the Method of Auxiliary Sources

We consider fast and accurate solutions of scattering
problems by large perfectly conducting objects (PEC) formulated
by an optimization of the Method of Auxiliary Sources (MAS). We
present various techniques used to reduce the total computational cost
of the scattering problem. The first technique is based on replacing
the object by an array of finite number of small (PEC) object with the
same shape. The second solution reduces the problem on considering
only the half of the object.These t
