Application of moment matching Model Order Reduction (MOR) techniques to the TLM method is presented with empha- sis placed on Krylov subspace methods based on Lanczos process and its modifications. The Krylov subspace methods are attractive for MOR in the TLM framework because the construction of the orthonormal and biorthogonal bases used for the Krylov subspaces can be carried out through the direct application of the implicit TLM solver. MOR applied to the TLM method allows to generate a compact macromodel of the TLM-system and reduce the computational time. The advantages of the SI and MOR techniques and their comparison are demonstrated trough their applications to the analysis of a planar patch antenna.","PeriodicalId":407683,"journal":{"name":"Workshop on Computational Electromagnetics in Time-Domain, 2005.

For such an nalysis a 3D time domain finite element approach provides an efficient approach. [1]. Such a model was developed in [2] in the context of microwaves cavities. The method solves the time-dependent vector wave equation and is based on tetrahedral edge elements for the electric filed interpolation. A Newmark scheme is used to approximate the time derivatives. The paper extends the work of [2] for antenna problems. The ability of the model is demonstrated in the case of a loop antenna for which the impedance is obtained as a function of frequency.","PeriodicalId":407683,"journal":{"name":"Workshop on Computational Electromagnetics in Time-Domain, 2005.

To validate our results we apply the algorithm to a gyromagnetic media where a Polder magnetic tensor is used and when this media is included in a rectangular waveguide to obtain non reciprocal effects (isolator). A comparison with experimental results obtained by Gardiol [2] is made.
