This comprehensive tutorial represents the fundamental principles and rigorous validations of two major contemporary branches in high-frequency computational electromagnetics: the frequency-domain integro-differential equation approach, with solution via the method of moments (MOM): and the time-domain differential equation approach, with solution via the finite-difference time-domain (FD-TD) method. The text also introduces the on-surface radiation condition (OSRC) method, a promising new research topic in high-frequency diffraction which may augment the widely-used geometric theory of diffraction.
