Abstract :
A hybrid technique combining the FDTD method and Physical Optics (PO) approximation is investigated as tools for efficient analysis of antennas radiating in the presence of complex structures (i.e. dielectric bodies and electrically large conducting platforms). Numerical examples are given to demonstrate considerable saving in both computer memory and CPU time offered by the proposed approach.
