Some efficient methods for the electromagnetic simulation of periodic structures

In this talk, some efficient methods for the electromagnetic (EM) simulation of periodic structures are reviewed, including the Method of Lines (MoL) and the Finite Difference Frequency Domain (FDFD) method for the propagation characteristic simulation of substrate integrated waveguide (SIW), and the Partial Basic Solution Vector (PBSV) based Domain Decomposition Method (DDM) for the scattering and propagation simulation of various periodic structures etc.
