Description
Summary:The paper is focused on two important parameters of the scheme with weighted Laguerre polynomials: the scale factor of time axis and the number of temporal basis functions. In the first part of the paper, the approach for the determination of the number of temporal basis functions is proposed. Its number is determined during the run of the scheme. In the second part of the paper, the influence of the choice of the scale factor on the efficiency of the scheme, with the possibility of its optimum choice, is investigated. The investigations show that a chosen scale factor strongly influences the efficiency of the scheme. If the scale factor is not chosen close to the optimum one, the scheme becomes time-consuming. However, a simple formula for its prediction can not be given. The choice of the scale factor seems to be the weak point of the scheme with Laguerre polynomials.
