Abstract

Electromagnetic (EM) problem model for anisotropic plasma in kDB coordinates system is set up. And the model includes almost all the respects of EM-problems for anisotropic plasma. Based on shift-operator finite difference time-domain (SO-FDTD) method, Maxwell equations and EM-field constitutive equations are solved and discrete difference scheme of each EM-field component is obtained. Then the propagation characteristics of eigen wave are expressed by the two components of electric displacement vector as well. Lastly, three typical examples are calculated by SO-FDTD method, and the results verify the effectiveness and exactness of SO-FDTD method in kDB coordinates system.
