Using Finite-Difference Time-Domain Method to Simulate Microwave Circuits

FDTD 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 this report the FDTD method is extended to include lumped-elements (as resistor, inductor, capacity),and nonlinear elements(as diode, transistor) to combine the circuit elements and electromagnetic fields, it¡¦s so called LE-FDTD algorithm. The first, we will introduce the theory derivations and simulate some circuit structures in 2D, and then in order to simulate the real circuits, we will extend this algorithm in 3D to make full-wave analysis.
