The finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method is one of the most popular numerical electromagnetic analysis tools. This method has been applied to a wide variety of problems such as antennas, electronic packaging, waveguides, etc. However, it is not suitable for large scale structures. The enormous memory requirement prohibits the use of FDTD to a large electrical size.
Recently, the pseudospectral time-domain (PSTD) method has been introduced for solution of Maxwell¡¦s equation. This method adopts the Fourier transform algorithm to perform the spatial derivatives. According to Nyquist sampling theorem, it requires only 2 cells per wavelength, so that it is possible to efficiently model larger scale problems. This thesis describes a combination of PSTD and FDTD method applied in different directions. The FDTD be applied to directions along fine structures and the PSTD be applied in direction along large structures.
