Finite-Difference Frequency-Domain Algorithm for Modeling Electromagnetic Scattering from General Anisotropic Objects
نویسندگان
چکیده
The finite-difference frequency-domain (FDFD) method is a very simple and powerful approach for rigorous analysis of electromagnetic structures. It may be the simplest of all methods to implement and is excellent for field visualization and for developing new ways to model devices. This paper describes a simple method for incorporating anisotropic materials with arbitrary tensors for both permittivity and permeability into the FDFD method. The algorithm is bench marked by comparing transmission and reflection results for an anisotropic guided-mode resonant filter simulated in HFSS and FDFD. The anisotropic FDFD method is then applied to a lens and cloak designed by transformation optics.

A Study of Electromagnetic Radiation from Monopole Antennas on Spherical-Lossy Earth Using the Finite-Difference Time-Domain Method
Radiation from monopole antennas on spherical-lossy earth is analyzed by the finitedifference time-domain (FDTD) method in spherical coordinates. A novel generalized perfectly matched layer (PML) has been developed for the truncation of the lossy soil. For having an accurate modeling with less memory requirements, an efficient "non-uniform" mesh generation scheme is used. Also in each time step...

The multiresolution time-domain (MRTD) algorithm is applied to the problem of general two-dimensional electromagnetic scattering. A Haar wavelet expansion is utilized. A parallel between Haar MRTD and the classic Yee finite difference time-domain (FDTD) algorithm is discussed, and results of simulations on canonical targets are shown for comparison. We focus on the incident-field implementation...

There is currently a great deal of interest in the theoretical and practical possibility of cloaking objects from the observation by electromagnetic waves. The basic idea of these invisibility devices [8, 9, 13], [18] is to use anisotropic transformation media whose permittivity and permeability ε , μ, are obtained from the ones, ε 0 , μ λν 0 , of isotropic media, by singular transformations of...
