Abstract :
Transmission-line modeling (TLM) is an established numerical simulation method for electromagnetics that has been employed in a wide variety of application areas. To date, TLM has been formulated primarily for structured (usually Cartesian) meshes. This paper presents and illustrates the application of a new TLM algorithm suitable for use with unstructured two-dimensional meshes based upon triangular elements.
