In this paper, a merged ultra-wideband characteristic basis function method (MUCBFM) is presented for high-precision analysis of wideband scattering problems. Unlike existing singular value decomposition (SVD) enhanced improved ultra-wideband characteristic basis function method (SVD-IUCBFM), the MUCBFM reduces the number of characteristic basis functions (CBFs) necessary to express a current distribution. This reduction is achieved by combining primary CBFs (PCBFs) with the secondary level CBFs (SCBFs) to form a single merged ultra-wideband characteristic basis function (MUCBF). As the MUCBF incorporates the effects of PCBFs and SCBFs, the accuracy does not change significantly compared to that obtained by the SVD-IUCBFM. Furthermore, the efficiencies of constructing the CBFs and filling the reduced matrix are improved. Numerical examples verify and demonstrate that the proposed method is credible both in terms of accuracy and efficiency.
