Abstract-The dispersion relation of piecewise linear recursive convolution finite difference time domain (PLRC-FDTD) method for space-varying plasma is analyzed using a novel equivalent method. The equivalent dispersion and dissipation errors have been taken into account. The efficiency of the novel equivalent method is substantiated by computing the test and reference transmitted electric field. The comparison of the test and reference solutions validates that the equivalent method is an efficient method to analyze the dispersion relation of PLRC-FDTD method used for space-varying plasma.
