Abstract :
Global three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) models of the Earth-ionosphere waveguide first appeared in the literature a decade ago. Over the past 10+ years, many advances have expanded the capabilities of these models and broadened their applicability. The capabilities are summarized in this Paper.
