2-D FDTD analysis of CPW Antenna for electromagnetic Near-field Applications

Abstract

In this paper, CPW-Antennas for Near-Field Applications were modelized with metal tips. In this study, we demonstrated that those antennas are near-field probes capable of transferring evanescent information into the far-field. As we expected, the results of the field distributions agree very well theoretically. The metal tips are investigated by the finite difference time-domain (FDTD) with Transverse ElectroMagnetic (TEM) propagation mode.
