Abstract

A new wavelet-based technique to generate multiresolution time-domain schemes is presented in this paper. By using symbolic calculus, a rigorous and general formulation of subgridding at every level of multiresolution is obtained. As it is rigorously equivalent to a finer finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) scheme, it does not require any particular treatments for boundary conditions. This technique has been successfully applied to the study of microstrip structures. The near- and the far-field computation can be both improved in terms of CPU time and memory storage, while maintaining the same accuracy as the classical FDTD computation
