We discuss how a spectral-domainmethod in combination with a split-operator technique can be used to calculate exact solutions of the time-dependent Maxwell's equations. We apply this technique to study the propagation of alight pulse through an inhomogeneous medium consisting of multiple random scatterers. We investigate the validity of the Boltzmann equation by directly comparing its solution with the ensemble averaged Maxwell solution.

Electromagnetic emissions from electronics associated with explosives is a potential detection modality, both passive listening, and stimulated RF emissions. However, the parasitic paths by which energy is coupled off a printed circuit board from an active device, and by which external energy can be coupled onto the board and to a device, must be identified and characterized. One such noise-coupling path is identified in this work, and a modeling approach demonstrated. In particular, coupling of noise from the DC power bus of a multilayer printed circuit board that uses entire metal layers for power and ground, and an I/O line that transitions through the DC power planes is investigated.

The paper describes the design of an antenna system for a video impulse radar dedicated to landmine detection. The developed antenna system consists of a dielectric wedge antenna as transmit antenna and loop antennas as receive ones. The receive antennas are situated below the transmit one. The dielectric wedge antenna has been designed on the basis of the transmission line model, which has been later verified by means of FDTD modeling. The loop antenna has been designed on the basis of a semi-analytical model. The transient behaviour of the antenna system has been investigated both experimentally and theoretically. It is shown that the developed system illuminates a limited spot on the ground surface with a short electromagnetic pulse. The field scattered by objects is received by the antenna system in a local point and without integration over large antenna aperture. The output of each receive antenna reproduces the waveform of the scattered field in a local point. To avoid any mechanical contact with hazardous objects the antenna system should be elevated at least 10cm above the ground.

A special finite-differencetime-domain (FDTD) formulation oblique incidence for periodic media is used for the design and analysis of an infrared photonic crystal filter with dual stopbands at 3-5 and 8-12 mu m. The transmission coefficients in the main stopband (8-12 mu m) is below - 10 dB. Scattering coefficients are calculated for different incidence angles, and the stopbands are shown to exist for different angles of incidence. (C) 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

This paper describes the analysis of integrated optical waveguides using finite-differencetime-domain (FDTD) method, and proposes the design methodology for low loss waveguide components: corner bends and branches. In order to integrate optical waveguides with Si VLSI technologies on a chip, the compact bends or branches are necessary. Since the optical power radiation from a bend or a branch point depends on the waveguide shapes, an accurate analysis of guided wave behavior is required. For the purpose we adopted the FDTD method which can analyze optical waveguides with a large variation of refractive index and arbitrary shape. Proposed design concept is to have all waveguides transmit only the fundamental mode and to design whole waveguides based on the fundamental mode transfer characteristics. For this design concept, waveguide components are required to have not only low radiation loss but also a little mode shift from the fundamental mode. The bend using the double-reflection mirrors and the branch using a slit are proposed for suppressing the mode shift and improving radiation loss. By the FDTD analysis, the following results have been obtained. The radiation loss and mode shift of double reflection bend are 1% and 4%, and those of the slit branch are 2% and 5%, respectively, in 2 mu m width waveguide.

Scattering parameter results for various types of microstrip circuit configurations have been calculated using a full-wave electromagnetic solution technique. A full-wave electromagnetic solution technique is the most robust since it accounts for all coupling mechanisms present in a given geometry. The method is based upon the finite-differencetime-domain (FDTD) method. (C) 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Validations of the accuracy of the FDTD method for near-field simulations are critical at this time to assess the accuracy of the FDTD method for the simulation of personal communication devices. Excellent comparisons between the FDTD method and analytical or measured results are shown for a dipole antenna next to a layered half-space, a layered box, and a sphere, and also an infinitesimal dipole near a sphere.
