Abstract
Surface impedance formalism permits to reduce the discretization volum e in a finite difference time domain (FDTD) code. The method based on the definition of surface impedances for plane waves at horizontal or vertical polarizations, is introduced in FDTD algorithm, to model inte rfaces between two media. In this paper, two dimensional and three dim ensional results are compared to those computed with classical FDTD or Fresnel reflection coefficients involving a Fourier transform.
