Abstract :
Based on the hybridization of finite-different and finite-element time-domain (FDTD/FETD) algorithms, a versatile local mesh refinement scheme is proposed to characterize the ground bounce of differential traces through the planes. In comparison with the conventional FDTD algorithm, the hybrid method is found to have the more computational efficiency without degrading its simulation accuracy.
