摘要

The electromagnetic wave propagation through plasma medium is one of the most important research fields in computational electromagnetics. A numerical formulation based on both the auxiliary differential equation (ADE) and the precise-integration time-domain (PITD) method for solving the plasma problems is proposed to break through the Courant-Friedrich-Levy (CFL) limit on the time-step size in a finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation. In this new method, the current density J is introduced as the auxiliary variable to deal with the complex permittivity of the plasma which is dependent on the frequency, and the precise integration (PI) technique makes the selectable maximum time-step size become much larger and removes the impact of the time-step size to the numerical dispersion error. Numerical experimentations of the typical plasma problems verify and validate the reliability of the proposed formulation. Through the numerical results, it can be found that the maximum allowable time-step size of the new method is much larger than that of the CFL limit of the FDTD method, and the calculation error of the new method is nearly independent of the time-step size. As a consequence, the execution time is significantly reduced by using a larger time-step size.
