It is obtained as a limiting case of some series expansions that appear in a solution of an electromagnetic problem in a recent letter. As an interesting property, it involves an arbitrary parameter r that may be used for specifying an interval in which the series becomes somewhat immune to the round-off errors and so the function F(x) can be calculated with any accuracy in that interval. We also give a computational scheme whose speed and accuracy performances fulfill the needs of high frequency electromagnetic methods.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessTaylor seriesElectromagneticsImage color analysisPhysical theory of diffractionOptical diffractionHigh frequencyFresnel reflectionGeometrical theory of diffraction (GTD)optical diffractionphysical theory of diffraction (PTD)series (mathematics)Article10.1109/LAWP.2021.30776172-s2.0-8510588845112827Q1127920WOS:000670564500034Q2
