Abstract
- A new methodology that facilitates the control of the inherent dispersion error in the case of higher order finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) schemes is presented in this paper. The basic idea is to define suitable algebraic expressions that reflect numerical inaccuracies reliably. Then, finite-difference operators are determined via the minimization of the error estimators at selected frequencies. In order to apply this procedure, an error expansion in terms of cylindrical harmonic functions is performed, which also enables accuracy enhancement for all propagation angles. The design process produces a set of two-dimensional (2-D) FDTD algorithms with optimized frequency response. Contrary to conventional methodologies, the proposed techniques adjust their reliability range according to the requirements of the examined problem and can be, therefore, more efficient in computationally demanding simulations.
