  • Abstract
    In this paper, the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) technique is applied in the simulations of quasi-optical planar oscillator arrays for the first time. Issues such as the source formulation and active device modeling of the FDTD simulation of quasi-optical active device arrays are discussed in the paper. By using the FDTD technique, 3-dimensional field distribution of oscillator arrays are presented. Simulation results show that the FDTD technique is an efficient tool for the design of quasi-optical device arrays
