Abstract
This monograph presents techniques that can be used to model complex microwave structures in MRTD. In this section, the derivation of the MRTD technique in three dimensions for a general wavelet basis is presented. In addition, as the MRTD technique is presented as an adaptive alternative to FDTD, and several MRTD examples will be contrasted to FDTD, a brief overview of the FDTD method is presented. This chapter begins with a discussion of MRTD basics, including wavelet basis functions and the method of moments, followed by a discussion of two specific areas, PML and PEC modeling. After these topics are addressed, an overview of FDTD, focusing on its similarities and differences with MRTD, is presented.
