Implementation of Microwave Active/Passive Elements Using the FDTD MethodsWu, Bo-Zhang 03 July 2003 (has links)
The FDTD method is a numerical method that uses the second-order central-difference method to discrete the Maxwell¡¦s equations in differential form, and positioning electromagnetic field in space grids and time grids. It is applied to analyze many electromagnetic problems in time domain. In the thesis, we applied FDTD methods to solve EMC/EMI problems like the interference to a mixer from an antenna, and the packaging effects to a small signal microwave amplifier and so on.
Therefore, we applied equivalent current source approach to simulate each microwave elements at first. And, we extend the approach to field of EMC/EMI. researching the advantages of FDTD methods in Full-Wave analysis.

Application of the ADI-FDTD Method to Planar CircuitsFan, Yang-Xing 01 July 2004 (has links)
The Finite-Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method is a very useful numerical simulation technique for solving problems related to electromagnetism. However, as the traditional FDTD method is based on an explicit finite-difference algorithm, the Courant-Friedrich-Levy(CFL) stability condition must be satisfied when this method is used. Therefore, a maximum time-step size is limited by minimum cell size in a computational domain, which means that if an object of analysis has fine scale dimensions, a small time-step size creates a significant increase in calculation time.
Alternating-Direction Implicit (ADI) method is based on an implicit finite-difference algorithm. Since this method is unconditionally stable, it can improve calculation time by choosing time-step arbitrarily. The ADI-FDTD is based on an Alternating direction implicit technique and the traditional FDTD algorithm. The new method can circumvent the stability constraint. In this thesis, we incorporate Lumped Element and Equivalent Current Source method into the ADI-FDTD. By using them to simulate active or passive device, the application of method will be more widely.
