“…Correspondingly, in numerical computation, such as FDTD or FEM, by assuming that the phased array antenna is infinite in extent, the full array analysis can be simplified to a single unit cell using Floquet boundary condition (FBC), saving both system memory and computation time substantially . In Reference , a 3 × 3 array with FBC has been utilized to more accurately analyze infinite phased array antenna by also accounting mutual coupling of centered array element to surrounding elements.…”

Wireless power transfer has been the field of research for many decades, and with technological advancement and increase in wireless mobile devices, the future of wireless power transfer technology is very promising. The major requirement of wireless power transfer is an efficient and compact antenna array with high gain and flawless scanning performance. In this article, a 4 × 8 element array is proposed with a gain of 18 dB and scanning capability of ±45 in azimuth and elevation plane at 5.8 GHz. The overall size of the array is 100 mm × 200 mm. The element separation in the array is only 0.48 λ. There

In this short paper, an investigation on near-field characteristics of linear infinite slot array antenna using FDTD method is presented. Using Floquet periodic boundary condition, useful illustrations on near-field of such periodic structures are described. Considering the effect of other radiating elements in an array structure, effective near-field pattern of a single slot in the array is shown to be accessible. This field will be useful in derivation of effective far-field pattern of each array element containing mutual coupling effects in the presence of other radiators. Compensation of mutual coupling effects on far-field pattern in array by this Algorithm is the vision of authors for future researches.

“…The former includes multi-spatial grid method [3], split-field method (SFM) [4][5][6], spectral FDTD method [7], and exponential time differencing method (ETD) [8,9], etc. The later includes multiple unit cell method [10], and sine-cosine method [11], etc. Compared with indirect methods, direct field methods have many advantages: they have the same stability condition and numerical error as those of the conventional FDTD method, and have simple formulations.…”

A simple and efficient joint algorithm of finite difference time domain (FDTD) and periodic boundary condition (PBC), called as the direct spectral FDTD method, has been investigated to study three-dimensional (3D) periodic structures with oblique incidence, where both the azimuth angle φ and the elevation angle θ are varying. The number of sampling points for the horizontal wave number can be determined by using an adaptive approach. As numerical results, the transmission and reflection coefficients from split-ring resonators (SRRs) and a dielectric grating slab are computed to validate the accuracy and efficiency of the direct spectral FDTD method. The computed results are in good agreement to the published ones obtained by other methods.
