  • Abstract
    A general method of deriving finite-difference schemes suitable for the discretization of the wave equation along the boundary of a simulation region has been developed, thereby eliminating the need of artificially imposed boundary conditions for modal calculations. Its effectiveness is demonstrated through examples
