Why this procedure was chosen
Extensive research was conducted for alternative sources. Mathematical modelling is ubiquitous in the marketplace, however the specific type required is quite specialised. Other sources considered have none of have the combined expertise in mathematic modelling of RF (Radio Frequency) propagation. Other groups considered have experience in wave dynamics and propagation, but do not have experience with electromagnetic modelling.
