In this paper, we propose a finite element method together with a constraint Lanczos algorithm for analysing arbitrarily-shaped microwave cavities. The proposed methodology is based on the use of (curl) tangential vector finite elements. Moreover, in order to solve for the generalized eigenmatrix equation efficiently, we have also developed a constrained Lanczos algorithm. Specifically, in the constrained Lanczos algorithm, we orthogonalize each new Krylov vector with respect to the spurious DC modes. Consequently, the iterative process can be used to solve for the physical resonant modes, including physical static fields, without the occurrences of any spurious DC modes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
