We present an efficient model for the simulation of spatially incoherent sources based on Wiener chaos expansion (WCE) method with two orders of magnitude shorter simulation time over the brute-force model. In this model the stochastic wave propagation equation is reduced to a set of deterministic partial differential equations (PDEs) for the expansion coefficients. We further numerically solve...

The time-dependent Maxwell’s equations are solved for mobile device applications using a multilevel-multigrid finite-difference timedomain (FDTD) method. For three-dimensional models that simulate system level details of mobile devices, the smallest features are in the nanometre (10−9 m) range, leading to a time-step size in the attosecond (10−18 s) range. The feature sizes of mobile devices ar...

In an effort to meet an ever increasing demand for more accurate and realistic integrated photonics simulations, we have developed a multidimensional, nonlinear finite difference time domain (NL-FDTD) Maxwe11's equations olver. The NL-FDTD approach and its application to the modeling of the interaction of an ultrashort, optical pulsed Gaussian beam with a Kerr nonlinear material will be describ...

Specific absorption rate (SAR) induced inside human head in the near-field of a mobile phone antenna has been investigated for three different SAR resolutions using Finite Difference in Time Domain (FDTD) method at GSM 900 band. Voxel based anthropomorphic human head model, consisting of different anatomical tissues, is used to calculate the peak SAR values averaged over 10-g, 1-g and 0.1-g mas...

In high and ultrahigh field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) research, computational electromagnetic techniques are now taking an important role in the design and evaluation of MRI radiofrequency (RF) coils. This paper focuses on the RF power requirements and specific absorption rate (SAR) associated with the MRI operation at different field strength. This paper also presents new techniques for...

A simulation technique based on Finite-Difference TimeDomain (FDTD) is used to analyze mutual coupling effects in reflectarray environment. The neighbouring element method has the ability to analyze actual non-identical reflectarray unit-cell accurately compared to the traditional Floquet simulation which assumes all unitcell is identical. It is also found that the nearest neighbouring unit-cel...

Photonic crystal waveguide devices incorporating line-defect waveguide bends have been fabricated. In this paper we present preliminary experimental analysis of these structures. Although evidence of photonic band-gap effects are observed in the spectra, transmission efficiency was found to be extremely low due to significant up-scattering losses from the holes. In order to quantify this loss m...

A numerical hybrid method for analyzing the wireless channel of Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) communication system is proposed by combining of the method of moments (MoM) and the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method. The proposed method is capable of investigating a more practical MIMO wireless channel than the conventional methods, and CPU time is much less than that of the FDTD...

The authors propose an extension of Berenger’s perfectly matched layer (PML) absorbing boundary conditions (ABC’s) to achieve a perfect matching of waves propagating in anisotropic media. Although the procedure to obtain the matching conditions is valid for any kind of anisotropic material, it has been validated with a lossless two-dimensional uniaxial medium, in which the optical axis is not c...
