Özet

We present a recursive version of the previously proposed fast algorithm for computation of the field scattered from arbitrary-shaped multilayer objects. As in the original version, the field at each layer is represented by a series of cylindrical functions with unknown coefficients. In order to determine these coefficients, a linear system of equations is obtained through a procedure based on the boundary conditions between the layers. Instead of solving this large system by applying conventional linear solvers as done in the original version, through an approach based on Thomas algorithm, we derive recursive expressions to compute the scattered field. While the accuracy of the results for both versions are almost the same, the recursive version has lower time and memory complexity. Hence, it supersedes the original version.
