TIME DOMAIN PHYSICAL OPTICS FOR THE HIGHER-ORDER FDTD MODELING IN ELECTROMAGNETIC SCATTERING FROM 3-D COMPLEX AND COMBINED MULTIPLE MATERIALS OBJECTS

This paper proposes a hybrid methodology that combines an extended form of Finite-Deference Time-Domain (FDTD) method with Time Domain Physical Optics (TDPO) for analysis of 3-D scattering of combinative objects in complex electromagnetic compatibility (E
