@conference{10902/3772, year = {2013}, month = {9}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/10902/3772}, abstract = {In this work we analyze several two-stage split-step finite-difference time-domain (2SS-FDTD) schemes and compare their performance with that of the traditional FDTD formulation. We present the numerical dispersion relations and the local truncation errors. All the schemes studied show error terms that depend on the time step multiplied by the spatial derivatives. We show that these error terms are especially critical in the locally one-dimensional (LOD)-FDTD scheme. To illustrate the relevance of these terms we simulate the propagation of the fundamental mode in a rectangular waveguide with a narrow iris.}, publisher = {URSI 2013, XXVIII Simposium Nacional de la Unión Científica Internacional de Radio, Santiago de Compostela}, title = {Estudio de las propiedades numéricas de los métodos FDTD de dos pasos}, author = {Grande Sáez, Ana María and Pereda Fernández, José Antonio and Serroukh, Abdelaziz and Barba García, Ismael and López Cabeceira, Ana Cristina and Represa Fernández, José Benito}, }
