Description / Abstract:
This recommended practice is a companion document for IEEE Std
1597.1-2008.1 It provides examples and problem sets to
be used in the validation of computational electromagnetics (CEM)
computer modeling and simulation techniques, codes, and models. It
is applicable to a wide variety of electromagnetic (EM)
applications including but not limited to the fields of
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), analysis of radar cross
section (RCS), signal integrity (SI), and the analysis of antennas.
This document shows how to validate a particular solution data set
by comparing it to the data set obtained by measurements, alternate
codes, canonical, or analytic methods.
Purpose
This recommended practice serves as an aid to CEM modelers and
analysts in the selection and application of appropriate computer
modeling and simulation methodologies, physics, and solution
techniques to achieve accurate results. It also serves to
complement measurements and EM design tasks for a range of
progressively complex problems through the use of modeling problem
examples for small-to-large scale canonical, benchmark, and
standard validation problems. Finally, this recommended practice
provides a detailed description of a validation process, i.e., the
Feature Selective Validation (FSV) method, which compares a
particular solution data set to a reference data set.
