The aim of the work is to develop a method for high-frequency EMFs calculation in terms of the modified vector potential and to use it for choice of the parameters of the layered absorbing coatings that provide effective absorption of radio wave radiation. Methodology. A method for calculation of electromagnetic fields in inhomogeneous media is described. It is performed in terms of the modified magnetic potential at presented a plane electromagnetic wave as an incident and reflected one. To reduce the computational domain size, additional uniaxially perfectly matched layers ensuring fast and non-reflective attenuation of electromagnetic field (EMF) strengths are used at its boundaries. It is supposed that electrical parameters of such layers have not only resistive, but also magnetic losses. Results. Modification of the known methods for dividing the wave into the incident and reflected, as well as introducing uniaxially perfectly matched layers at the domain boundaries and formulation of the problem in terms of the modified vector potential, provide a possibility to solve the problem of the electromagnetic wave incidence onto heterogeneous media at reduced memory and counting time compared to the formulation tasks through the EMF strengths. Practical value. The described method was used to select parameters of radio-absorbing coatings, application of which on conductive bodies reduces the reflections from them of the incident electromagnetic waves. This provides a possibility to choose the electrical parameters of layered coatings with active losses, as well as magnetic losses, which provide a decrease of the reflected waves amplitude by an order of magnitude or more. Originality. For the first time, the problem of calculating the incidence of an electromagnetic wave on an inhomogeneous medium with active electrical and magnetic losses was formulated in terms of the modified vector potential. The parameters of a multilayer lossy coating, which ensures decrease of the reflected EMF wave strengths by an order of magnitude or more are determined.References
