Programme Overview

To understand, control and exploit the propagation and scattering characteristics of electromagnetic (EM) waves in real world, it is essential to develop methodologies and computational EM (CEM) tools for modeling both scattering and radiation problems with practical configurations. Particularly important are configurations that are electrically large in size, complex in structure, and irregular in shape.

The Propagation and Scattering Group of Temasek Laboratories undertakes the long-term development of CEM capabilities, to be fulfilled through the following six efforts:

• To conduct research on advanced computational algorithms for modeling complex EM wave propagation and scattering phenomena;
  
• To physically understand and efficiently solve EM propagation and scattering problems using suitable methodologies, and with good accuracy in the solutions;
  
• To investigate various techniques for controlling and exploiting the EM wave propagation and scattering behaviors of complex targets;
  
• To build good benchmarking models with clear physical meaning for providing high quality mesh and measured data, to test the capabilities of the EM tools developed;
  
• To demonstrate, with the use of suitable prototypes, the technologies and capabilities developed;
  
• To build a core research teamin EM wave propagation and scattering research.
