Abstract :
The MRTD scheme is applied to the analysis of microwave structures with complex air-dielectric interfaces. A new formulation for modeling air-dielectric interfaces is introduced and applied to different microwave structures. MRTD results are compared to those generated by FDTD, and it is shown that MRTD retains substantial savings in memory.
