  • Abstract
    The purpose of this paper is to discuss a novel time-domain technique, which is based on the spectral-domain periodic finite-difference time-domain method (FDTD) method and the array scanning method (ASM), to study the electromagnetic behaviors of a two-dimensional EBG waveguide excited by an electric-current line source. This method requires the analysis of only a singe unit cell.
