Abstract

This paper presents a subcell modeling method for use with the Haar-MRTD (multiresolution time-domain) technique. This technique enables the application of the PEC boundary condition at individual equivalent grid points. Through the use of field reconstruction/decomposition, a method is presented that allows the application of pointwise effects using the MRTD technique. This technique makes it possible to use the MRTD time- and space-adaptive grid in the simulation complex structures consisting of PECs and other local effects.
