ABSTRACT: This paper presents an algorithm for analysis of the dielectric radomes. In this method, the radome is discretized by a regular grid with rooftop basic functions. The Volume Integral Equation (VIE) for 3D dielectric object is transformed to linear system by Galerkin’s testing formulation. Furthermore, the linear system is presented by Toeplitz matrix which can be solved by the Conjugate Gradient algorithm combined with Fast Fourier Transform (CG-FFT) iteratively. Also, the algorithm requires less computational complexity and memory. This paper simulates the mono-static Radar Cross Section of dielectric radome by the CG-FFT, which was validated against commercial software FEKO.
