We apply an anisotropic perfectly matched layer (APML) absorber for open boundary truncation in implementation of the multiresolution time domain (MRTD) scheme. We develop an APML update algorithm to handle a general APML region in the MRTD formulations with the content of the leapfrog algorithm applied in the conventional finite-difference time-domain method. We also discuss the boundary truncations for both perfectly electric conductor (PEC) and perfectly magnetic conductor (PMC) walls using the image techniques. We validate the algorithm by analyzing various guided wave and antenna structures. It is found that the APML performs well for absorbing electromagnetic waves in the MRTD algorithm.
