一种降低ADI-FDTD算法数值色散的准各向同性空间差分法

Reduction of Numerical Dispersion of ADI-FDTD Method with Quasi Isptropic Spatial Difference Scheme

使用准各向同性的空间差分格式替代常规ADI-FDTD算法中的差分形式来改善原算法中的数值色散问题。修正后的算法依然保持了无条件稳定的优势;同时,通过合理选择加权系数,仿真过程中的数值色散误差可以显著降低。推导出了修正算法的数值色散关系,并从入射角、时间步长和网格尺寸等3个方面分析了修正算法数值色散问题的改进程度。最后,通过一个算例对比演示了改进算法的精度和计算效率。

The difference scheme of the alternating-direction-implicit finite-difference time-domain(ADI-FDTD) method is replaced by the quasi isotropic(QI) spatial difference scheme to improve its numerical dispersion characteristics. The unconditional stability advantage of QI-ADI-FDTD is analytically proven and numerically verified. The numerical dispersion of the novel method can be dramatically reduced by choosing proper weighting factor. An example is simulated to demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method.
