Characterization of the radiation pattern of antennas via FDTD and time-domain moment expansion

An alternative method is proposed to characterize the radiation pattern of antennas from an impulse response, based on a moment expansion together with a frequency domain near-to-far-field transformation via a FDTD/CPML solver. The approach introduced in the present work is intended for printed ante...
