FDTD Calculation of Antenna Impedance by a Simple and Efficient Method
to calculate the antenna input impedance using the FDTD method is derived from Yee's difference equation.It is very simple and efficient
and reduces the errors of antenna impedance at the low frequencies near zero.The method makes it easy to calculate antenna input impedance.To check the validity of such method
a monopole antenna on a box is simulated using FDTD
and the result shows that the errors of antenna impedance at the low frequencies disappear.A patch antenna fed by coaxial line is also calculated
and result has a good agreement with that by another software.
