Abstract

The initial application and validation of the finite-domain time-difference (FDTD) method to model impulsive ELF propagation withint he entire Earth-ionosphere cavity was reported. This technique permits direct, 3-D, time-domain calculation of impulsive, round-the-world ELF propagation accounting for arbitrary horizontal as well as vertical geometrical and electrical inhomogeneities and anisotropies of the excitation, ionosphere, lithosphere, and oceans.
