An efficient method is presented for transforming the matrix of the method of moments obtained by the expansion of the unknown surface currents with pulse basis function and the use of point match testing to a matrix with wavelet basis and testing functions. When the electromagnetic scattering object is a dielectric or object under oblique plane‐wave incidence, more than one equivalent surface current component exists at the object surface. When these currents are connected into one current vector in the method of moments, there must be some discontinuities between the current components. These discontinuities make the direct wavelet transform to the whole MoM matrix inefficient and not equivalent to the use of the wavelet functions in the expansion of the unknown currents and the testing. Therefore, the wavelet transform must be constructed in a different way to avoid these discontinuities. Here, the proper wavelet transform that is equivalent to the use of the wavelet functions in the MoM, which avoids such discontinuities, is presented. This transform is referred to as wavelet subtransform. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
