Transient Heterogeneous Electromagnetic Simulation With DGTD and Behavioral Macromodel

Anovel hybrid field-circuit simulationmethod is proposed for transient heterogeneous electromagnetic simulations. It adopts the discontinuous Galerkin time domain (DGTD) method and behavioral macromodel trained by artificial neural network to analyze the electromagnetic structure and circuit network, respectively. Due to the feature of DGTD method and behavioral macromodel, the proposed method can handle not only electromagnetic structures with complex geometries and materials but also manage circuits with unknown internal details. It provides a new approach that has the trainable accuracy to meet today's IP projection requestions. It is also the first time for DGTD algorithm to work with the behavior model. Numerical examples have been benchmarked to demonstrate the capability of the proposed method.
