Abstract :
The finite-difference-time-domain (FD-TD) technique is applied to calculations of self and mutual admittances between wire antennas. The results are compared with results obtained using the method of moments. The agreement is quite good, indicating the possibilities for FDTD application to antenna impedance and coupling
