Abstract :
This paper presents the developments in the time-domain simulation of microwave circuits. This approach is gaining attention mainly due to its ability for modeling realistic microwave structures which can include active and nonlinear devices. In particular, an overview of the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method with its recent additions such as diakoptics and system identification, and nonlinear circuit capabilities are presented
