Abstract :
An innovative finite-volume-type numerical method named as the space-time conservation element and solution element (CE/SE) method is applied to solve time-dependent Maxwell´s equations. Test problems of electromagnetic scattering and antenna radiation are solved for validation. Numerical results are presented and compared with the analytical solutions, showing very good agreement.
