摘要

Implementing a practical fourth order accurate in time and second order accurate in space finite difference time domain simulation using MATLAB is the goal of this paper. The formulation presented for the fourth order approximation is simple to integrate into an existing second order accurate in time and second order accurate in space formulation and wellestablished code. The fourth order formulation has been verified and simulation accuracy is confirmed through the application of radiation from a single and an array of dipole antennas.
