FDTD solution of Maxwell's equations for an edge slot penetrating adjacent broadwalls of a finite wall thickness waveguide

The finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method is applied to predict reflection coefficients for edge slots penetrating the adjacent broadsides of thick nailed rectangular X-band waveguides. Measured and calculated values S/sub 11/ are compared to experiment for waveguides terminated by shorted loads. >
