MODAL NEAR-FIELD TO FAR-FIELD TRANSFORMATION FOR FDTD MODELLING OF APERTURE ANTENNAS

This paper describes a new numerical approach for the broad-band analysis of aperture antennas which avoids the use of both ω-domain and k-domain discrete Fourier transform. The FDTD method is adopted for the near field analysis of the antenna and the aperture field is then processed by time-domain modal expansion to obtain broadband gain pattern. The new method is specified for rectangular aperture antennas and is demonstrated by means of some examples.
