Application of Stochastic FDTD to Holland’s thin-wire method

This paper presents an extension of the stochasticFDTD method to predict the standard deviation of currents andcharges in the Holland FDTD sub-cell method for thin wires. Adiscussion is presented on the effect of cross-correlation betweenthe variables affected by uncertainty, and the variability of theobserved quantities. For this, a simple dipole antenna loaded witha Wu-King profile is analyzed, and the results are validated withthe Monte Carlo method. ; Spanish MINECO, EU FEDER under Project TEC2016-79214-C3-3-R (MINECO, Spain) ; Alhambra-LFT contractwith AIRBUS (Spain)
