This paper presents an efficient approach to implement electromagnetic-thermal (EM-T) co-simulation of a planar monopole antenna based on hybrid implicit-explicit finite-difference time-domain method (HIE-FDTD-M). First, the EM simulation is carried out by solving Maxwell’s curl equation. Once field reaches steady state, power loss computed according electric conductivity material. Finally, the...

in this paper, a new design of optical channel drop filter based on two- dimensional photonic crystal ring resonators with triangular lattice is proposed. the rods of this structure is silicon with the refractive index nsi=3.46 and the surrounding environment is air with the refractive index of nair=1.the widest photonic band gap obtains for the filling ratio of r/a = 0.2. the filter’s transmis...

The frequency dependent dielectric permittivity of dispersive materials is commonly modeled as a rational polynomial based on multiple Debye, Drude, or Lorentz terms in the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. We identify a simple effective model in which dielectric polarization depends both on the electric field and its first time derivative. This enables nearly exact FDTD simulation o...

The paper presents the results of numerical analyses of the structures of integrated optics in the form of planar waveguides made of materials with high values of the refractive index n = 2.00 and with an input-output system in the form of Bragg grating couplers. The numerical investigations were carried out by using the FDTD method (Finite Difference Time Domain method).

A proposed sensor for landmines detection consists of two parallel microstrip antennas placed on the same ground plane and with defected ground structure between them has been investigated. The microstrip patch array with defected ground structure has the advantage of a low mutual coupling compared with the classic one. The Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) is used to simulate the sensor for...

We have developed a systematic design process for recently proposed slanted grating couplers (SGCs) that operates in the strong coupling regime. Based on rigorous analysis of SGC properties, this design process utilizes the k-vector diagram and a rigorous grating leaky-mode solver to intentionally enforce the phase-match and Bragg conditions. We demonstrate that the resultant SGC designs have p...

This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of numerical dispersion of the recently developed unconditionally stable three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method where the alternatingdirection-implicit technique is applied. The dispersion relation is derived analytically and the effects of spatial and temporal steps on the numerical dispersion are investigated. It is found tha...

In this letter, finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) computed radiation patterns of mobile telephones are carefully compared with those measured in our laboratory. The question on the capability of the FDTD method to correctly predict the radiated electromagnetic fields of today’s structurally complex mobile telephones is addressed. Two commercially available cellular telephones equipped with t...

In this paper, an advanced numerical technique is proposed for a low-frequency electromagnetic field simulation. The finite difference time domain (FDTD) method is one of the best methods for analyzing electromagnetic field problems, which require high levels of precision, such as a heterogeneous whole-body voxel human model. However, directly using the standard FDTD method in the quasi-static ...

Dual-mode, meander loop filters can provide a valid solution for narrow-band, compact and cost-effective devices for mobile communications. The finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method was employed in order to obtain an accurate filter design. For the non-reflective boundary conditions, the Bérenger perfectly-matched layer (PML) was extended to a 3-D non-homogeneous PML. The computation time...
