Abstract :
The wavelet-Galerkin method based on highly regular Daubechies´ compactly supported scaling functions has been applied to two-dimensional time-domain optical waveguide problems. The simple local sampling and the small numerical dispersion properties have enabled full-wave analysis of electrically-large inhomogeneous structures in a reasonable computational effort.
