Efficient GSTC-FDTD Simulation of Dispersive Bianisotropic Metasurface

We present a simple and efficient Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDFD) scheme for simulating dispersive (Lorentz-Debye) bianisotropic metasurfaces. This scheme replaces the conventional FDTD update equations by augmented update equations where the effect of the metasurface, positioned at a virtual node (or node plane) in the Yee grid, is accounted for by judiciously selected auxiliary polarization functions, based on the Generalized Sheet Transition Conditions (GSTCs). This scheme is computationally -- time- and memory-wise -- more efficient and easier to implement than a previously reported scheme for dispersive metasurfaces. It is validated in three illustrative examples.
