Generalized plane waves (GPWs) were introduced to take advantage of Trefftz methods for problems modeled by variable coefficient equations. Despite the fact that GPWs do not satisfy the Trefftz property, i.e., they are not exact solutions to the governing equation, they instead satisfy a quasi-Trefftz property: They are only approximate solutions. They lead to high-order numerical methods, and this quasi-Trefftz property is critical for their numerical analysis. The present work introduces a new family of GPWs: amplitude-based. The motivation lies in the poor behavior of the phase-based GPW approximations in the preasymptotic regime, which will be tamed by avoiding high-degree polynomials within an exponential. The new functions' construction and the study of their approximation properties are guided by the road map proposed in [L.-M. Imbert-Gérard and G. Sylvand, Numer. Math., to appear]. For the sake of clarity, the first focus is on the two-dimensional Helmholtz equation with spatially varying wave number. The extension to a range of operators allowing for anisotropy in the first- and second-order terms follows. Numerical simulations illustrate the theoretical study of the new quasi-Trefftz functions.

引入广义平面波 (GPW) 以利用 Trefftz 方法解决由可变系数方程建模的问题。尽管 GPW 不满足 Trefftz 特性，即它们不是控制方程的精确解，但它们满足准 Trefftz 特性：它们只是近似解。它们导致了高阶数值方法，而这种准 Trefftz 特性对于它们的数值分析至关重要。目前的工作介绍了一个新的 GPW 系列：基于幅度的。动机在于前渐近状态下基于相位的 GPW 近似的不良行为，这将通过避免指数内的高次多项式来解决。新函数的构造及其近似特性的研究由 [L.-M.
