Abstract

[This chapter begins with a recapitulation of key theories pertaining to classical electromagnetism: Maxwell’s equations, constitutive relations and electromagnetic (EM) boundary conditions. After that, the importance of full wave and asymptotic computational EM frameworks are highlighted, with emphasis on the application purview of finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. Then, starting from the Maxwell’s curl equations, the flux density-based formulation of FDTD update equations for space-time electric and magnetic fields is developed for one-dimensional (1D) problems. Utilizing bounce-diagram visualizations inspired by transmission line theory, transverse electromagnetic (TEM) wave propagation phenomena in both free-space and through dielectric slabs are demonstrated using 1D-FDTD method. In the process, hard/soft-source realization issues, as well as the need for implementing Perfectly Matched Layers (PML) are described. Finally, the choice of cell size and time-stepping, and the relation of these parameters with numerical dispersion and stability (CFL criterion) are discussed.]
