Development of an electromagnetic numerical solver based on the finite difference time domain (FDTD) technique for research and teaching purposes

A 1D-FDTD code was developed to support plane wave excitation in 3D-FDTD domain and the code was developed using C++ programming language. First-order Mur absorbing boundary condition (ABC) is applied to keep outgoing electric and magnetic fields from being reflected into the problem space. In this...
