Abstract :
An one-step arbitrary-order leapfrog alternating-direction-implicit finite-difference time-domain (ADI-FDTD) method is presented. Its unconditional stability is analytically proven and numerically verified. Its numerical properties are shown to be identical to those of the conventional ADI-FDTD and LOD-FDTD methods. However, its computational expenditure is found to be the lowest. In other words, in comparison with the ADI-FDTD and LOD-FDTD methods, the one-step arbitrary-order leap-frog ADI-FDTD method retains identical numerical modeling accuracy but with higher computational efficiency.
