The problem of electromagnetic analysis on a macroscopic level is that of solving Maxwell’s equations subject to certain boundary conditions. Maxwell’s equations are a set of equations, written in differential or integral form, stating the relationships between the fundamental electromagnetic quantities. These quantities are:
The first two equations are also referred to as Maxwell–Ampère’s law and
Faraday’s law, respectively. Equation three and four are two forms of
Gauss’ law: the electric and magnetic form, respectively.
