Abstract
Combining the ATLM scheme with rotation of the polarization states of the mesh lines by 45 degrees the computational effort can be reduced c ompared with conventional TLM by up to 75%. It is shown that by this w ay the conventional TLM scheme degenerates into four independent compu tational schemes, each of which contains the full information. Besides the reduction of the computational effort and storage requirements, a lso spurious modes and nonphysical solutions are eliminated.
