We propose a dispersive finite-difference time domain (FDTD) suitable for the electromagnetic analysis of human tissues. The dispersion relation of biological tissues is characterized by a quadratic complex rational function (QCRF) that leads to an accurate FDTD algorithm in 400 MHz-3 GHz. QCRF coefficients are extracted by applying the complex-curve fitting technique, without initial guess. Numerical examples are used to illustrate the computational accuracy and stability of QCRF-based FDTD.
