Abstract

The results of a numerical experiment designed to test the accuracy of the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) numerical model for an impulsive circular cylindrical wave is reported. It aims to track the wave in time and space as it propagates radially outward from a filamentary current source, travels completely around the earth-sphere model, and then propagates radially inward to the antipode. Results are shown for a 1024 × 512 grid spanning the Earth-sphere, and the grid is assumed to be lossless.
