Generalized material models in TLM .II. Materials with anisotropic properties

Abstract

For pt. I see ibid., vol.47, no.10, p.1528-34 (1999). Transmission-line modeling (TLM) can be used for the time-domain simulation of electromagnetic wave propagation in anisotropic and bi-anisotropic media. In this paper, Z-transform methods are utilized to obtain the time-domain iteration procedures for propagation in anisotropic and bi-isotropic materials. For clarity, the method is first developed for one-dimensional (1-D) propagation and then extended to the three-dimensional (3-D) case.
