The broadband input impedance, the input power and the radiation pattern of the monopole antenna attached to the handy phone operated at 800MHz are calculated by using the Finite Difference Time Domain(FDTD) Method. For the FDTD analysis of frequency characteristics of monopole antenna, the handy phone is modeled with the geometry that the monopole antenna is connected to a conducting box, and the modified FDTD algorithm[11] used the thin wire appproximation method and the Maxwell's integral equation from the original Yee algorithm is applied for the analysis of the wire structure. Also, by means of finding the current distribution directly from circumferencial magnetic filelds around the monopole antenna and the conducting box, the radiation pattern is calculated to observe the influence of the conducting box, and is compared with the results of the known mothod for the FDTD calculation of radiation pattern, For the experiments, the handy phone of which full length including antenna is .lambda. $\lambda$/2 is manufactured and we confirm that all computation results are agree well with the mea- sured values.

This paper presents the new Compact 2D Haar-wavelet-based MultiResolution Time-Domain method (MRTD) as an accelerating algorithm for the conventional Compact BD Finite-Difference Time-Domain method (FDTD). To validate this algorithm, we analyzed the dispersion characteristics of the hollow rectangular waveguide and dielectric slab-loaded rectangular waveguide. The results of the proposed method are very weal agreed with those of both the conventional analytic method and the Compact 2D FDTD method. The CPU time for analysis of this method is reduced to about a half of the conventional Compact 2D FDTD method. The proposed method is valuable as a fast algorithm in the research of dispersion characteristics of waveguide structures.

Scattering coefficients of randomly rough lossy dielectric surfaces were computed by using the FDTD(Finite-Difference Time-Domain) method and the Monte Carlo method in this paper. The FDTD method was applied to compute electromagnetic wave scattering characteristics at any incident angles, any linear polarizations by dividing the computation region into the total-field region and the scattered-field region. The radar cross sections(RCS) of conducting cylinders have been computed and compared with theoretical results, measurement data and the results from the method of moment(MoM) to verify the FDTD algorithm. Then, to apply the algorithm to compute scattering coefficients of distributed targets, a two-dimensionally rough surface was generated numerically for given roughness characteristics. The far-zone scattered fields of 50 statistically independent dielectric rough surfaces were computed and the scattering coefficient of the surface was calculated from the scattered fields by using the Monte Carlo method. It was found that these scattering coefficients agree well with the SPM(Small Pertubation Method) model in its validity region.

In this paper, a new scheme to calculate the weighting factor of the 2-D isotropic-dispersion finite difference time domain(ID-FDTD) is proposed. The weighting factor in [1] was formulated in free space, so that it may not be optimal in dielectric media. Therefore, the weighting factor was reformulated by considering the material properties and using the least mean square method. As a result, a minimum numerical dispersion error for any dielectric media is guaranteed.

In this paper, the extended finite difference time domain(FDTD) algorithm is applied to carry out full-wave analysis of a microwave amplifier circuit. The active device included in the amplifier is modeled by equivalent current sources. Equivalent current sources are characterizing interaction between electronmagnetic waves and active devices and can be directly incorporated into the FDTD algorithm. To confirm this analysis, an amplifier is implemented. The FDTD simulation shows good agreement with measured results.

In this paper, a microstrip patch antenna was analyzed by using FDTD method. Firstly, the electric field in the microstrip patch antenna was obtained by approximating a Maxwell's equation to a finite difference equation by means of Yee's algorithm. In this case, Mur's 1st approximation and dispersive boundary condition(BBC) were applied to an absorbing boundary condition. We also analyzed a single microstrip patch antenna by using the FDTD method, then calculating the propagative process in the wave of a return loss. Also, as the result that FDTD was applied to 2-array antenna designed to increase the gain of antenna, the measured results was in relatively good accordance with the values calculated by the FDTD method. The calculated impedance, return loss and VSWR were comparatively good. And these results were In relatively good accordance with the measured values.

Noninvasive multifrequency microwave radiometry using coaxial waveguide antenna has been investigated for a homogeneous and our layer human body model. We derived finite-difference time-domain(FDTD) algorithm and equation of MUR and generalized perfectly matched layer(GPML) absorbing boundary conditions(ABCs) in cylindrical coordination. The coupling between coaxial waveguide antenna and a biological object was analyzed by use of the FDTD method using MUR and GPML ABCs to obtain the absorbed power patterns in the media. The specific absorption rates(SAR) distribution which was corresponding to the temperature distribution was calculated in each region by use of the steady-state response in FDTD method. The SAR patterns of FDTD method using MUR ABCs was compared with those of FDTD method using GPML ABCs.

The finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method is used to analyze circular waveguide transformer in order to match different two waveguides. 2-dimensional cylindrical FDTD algorithm is applied for rotationally symmetric. The transformer is inserted at a circular-to-circular waveguide junction and two type transformers are proposed. One is a partially dielectric filled circular waveguide type and the other is filled a tapered circular dielectric rod. The numerical results are derived for various structure parameters, such as transformer length. dielectric diameter and waveguide diameter.
