Applying the Multiple Scattering (MS) Method to Evaluate the Current Response on a Cable Harness Due to an Incident Plane Wave

In this paper, the MS method is applied to solve an immunity problem of harness-body co-simulation. In this immunity problem, the structure under study consists of two parts: the cable harness part (harness) and the metal surface part (body). The harness is solved using the generalized multiconductor transmission-line (GMTL) solver and the body is solved using the mixed-potential integral equation (MPIE) solver. The interactions between the harness and the body are achieved through a series of iterations called MS. The calculation results show good correlation with the reference results, which validates the accuracy of the MS method.
