Abstract
A new Discontinuous Galerkin Time Domain (DGTD) method for solving the 3D time dependent Maxwell's equations via the electric field intensity E and magnetic flux density B fields is proposed for the first time. It uses curl-conforming and divergence-conforming basis functions for E and B, respectively, with the same order of interpolation. In this way, higher accuracy is achieved at lower memory consumption than the conventional approach based on the field variables E and H. The centered flux and Riemann solver are both used to treat interfaces with non-conforming meshes, and both explicit Runge–Kutta method and implicit Crank–Nicholson method are implemented for time integration. Numerical examples for realistic cases will be presented to verify that the proposed method is a non-spurious and efficient DGTD scheme.
