Abstract

We consider the problem of the computer-aided construction of geometrical optics electromagnetic wave propagation paths (ray tracing). We indicate the disadvantages of widely applied Shooting and Bouncing Rays method. We also provide the examples of its software implementation. As opposed to the employed approaches, the method and the algorithm synthesized on its basis are introduced for the reflected ray tracing where the search process is implemented faster and there are no disadvantages inherent in their common counterparts.
