A conducting domain surface boundary applied to hybrid FEM-FDTD Electromagnetic Models
A modified boundary surface between the two domains in the hybrid FEM-FDTD technique is presented. This permits a heterogeneous surface to be imposed, allowing selected parts to be represented as being conducting or non-conducting. This enables a reduced surface size to be used in ca...

| Summary: | A modified boundary surface
between the two domains in the hybrid
FEM-FDTD technique is presented. This
permits a heterogeneous surface to be
imposed, allowing selected parts to be
represented as being conducting or
non-conducting. This enables a reduced
surface size to be used in cases where an
antenna is above a conducting plane, as well
as facilitating a range of other practical
scenarios. Examples presented show stable
results and good agreement with published
data. |
