Microstrip antenna design parameters, resonance characteristics and radiation patterns are evaluated using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. The effects of location of feed point and human body are analyzed, and the radiation performances of the proposed antenna are estimated in terms of radiation patterns. Finally, specific absorption rate (SAR) computations are also performed, and the peak 1-g and 10-g SAR values are calculated. According to peak SAR values, the maximum delivered power for the designed antenna was found so that the SAR values of the antennas satisfy ANSI limitations.展开更多

This paper describes a revised piecewise linear recursive convolution PLRC-FDTD formulation for magnetized plasma which incorporates both anisotropy and frequency dispersion at the same time, enabling the transient analysis of magnetized plasma media. The technique is illustrated by numerical simulations of the reflection and transmission coefficients through a magnetized plasma layer. The results show that the revised PLRC-FDTD method has improved the accuracy over the original RC FDTD method and JEC FDTD method.展开更多

In this paper, the dielectric constant of the dispersive medium is written as a rational polynomial function, and the relationship between D and E is derived in the time-domain. It is referred to as the shift operator finite-different time-domain （SO-FDTD） method. Compared to an analytical solution and a piecewise linear current density recursive convolution （PLJERC） solution, the high accuracy and efl%iency of this method is verified by calculating the reflectance of the electromagnetic wave through a cold plasma slab. As the electron density in plasma is distributed as the Epstein formula, the effect of distribution grads and electron collision frequency on the reflectance is calculated by using the SO-FDTD method. The result shows that the increase in the distribution grads coefficient affects the reflectance sharply. When it comes to a smaller distribution grads coelBcient, the increase of the collision frequency showed a significant effect on the reflectance, but on the contrary, there is actually less and less effect till it disappears.展开更多
