  • Abstract
    A cross-shaped dielectric resonator antenna, designed for circular polarisation, is analysed via the conformal finite difference time domain technique. The conformal technique, which can handle canted surfaces that do not conform to the Cartesian system of co-ordinates, is used to generate accurate results with a relatively coarse mesh, e.g. it is shown that the conformal FDTD offers a 2:1 advantage over staircasing, without compromising accuracy
