Abstract :
A generalized algebraic method for the calculation of TLM dispersion relations is presented. The method can be applied to general TLM nodes described by square scattering and propagation matrices of equal dimension. To demonstrate the method, the dispersion relations of the scalar TLM node and of the three-dimensional condensed symmetric TLM node are calculated.
