High-order Nystrom solution of the volume - EFIE for TE-wave scattering

In this paper, a high-order technique based on a locally-corrected Nystrom scheme is applied to the solution of electromagnetic scattering problems vi a the volume electric field integral equation. The locally corrected Nystro m method is detailed for the solution of the vector polarization currents. It is demonstrated that this scheme converges in a high-order manner for th e scattering cross section of a dielectric cylinder of arbitrary cross sect ion, and is computationally efficient.
