  • Abstract
    This paper proposes an extension of the Finite Element Time Domain (FETD) method for the global electromagnetic (EM) analysis of complex inhomogeneous microwave distributed circuits, containing linear or non linear lumped elements. This technique combines Maxwell´s equations and circuit equations, using directly SPICE software. Results are given for a capacitor, a resistor as well as a Schottky diode.
