摘要
In dispersion analysis of waveguides with particular cross-section by compact 2D-FDTD method, using conformal-boundary coordinates can obtain high computational accuracy. The transformation from conformal-boundary coordinates to rectangular coordinates can be done by conformal mapping technique in order to match Yee algorithm. In this paper, numerical stability and numerical dispersion equation of compact conformal mapping 2D-FDTD (CCM-2D-FDTD) method are derived. It is shown that the upper limit of Courant number for CCM-2D-FDTD is always smaller than 1/2. As an example, the dispersion equation is used to examine the impact of number of cell for circular waveguide.
