A nonlinear approach to absorbing boundary conditions for the semilinear wave equation

We construct a family of absorbing boundary conditions for the semilinear wave equation. Our principal tool is the paradifferential calculus which enables us to deal with nonlinear terms. We show that the corresponding initial boundary value problems are well posed. We finally present numerical experiments illustrating the efficiency of the method.
