  • Abstract
    Incorporating lumped-circuit elements into finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation greatly enhances the FDTD method´s capability to model both distributed structures and lumped circuitries. The multiple-cell formulation proposed by C.H. Durney et al. (see ibid., vol. 6, p. 85-7, Feb. 1996) is only numerically stable for modeling structures with large permittivity. A stable algorithm for modeling material with both large and small permittivity is presented in this letter. Verification data is given together with detailed derivations
