Abstract
In this paper, finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method is used to calculate the driving-point impedance of radial transmission-line in circular groove guide. A simple way is used to approximate the curvilinear metal boundary of circular groove guide. And perfectly matched layer (PML) is applied on the open boundary of circular groove guide. Fine-grid is used to calculate the EM fields in the radial transmission-line in which we are interest. Discretized wave equation is used to update the tangential electric field on the boundary of coarse- and fine-grid. At last, the driving-point impedances related to different diameter of the radial transmission-line are obtained from the ratio of the Fourier transform of the voltage to the Fourier transform of the current.
