Notes:
A propagator integral interpretation for general TLM processes is presented and applied to discretized Maxwell's equations. The approach provides exact algebraic solutions of finite difference equations along a quite universal scheme.Specifically, Johns's process based on the symmetrical condensed node is reconstructed and generalized as a clear-cut FD algorithm. The fields computed are exact time-domain solutions of the FD equations, provided that total voltages and currents are evaluated and stub quantities are not externally excited. Losses are very naturally incorporated into the TLM algorithm.The structural similarity of the TLM process (properly operated) with the propagator integral appears just as fundamental as general and should have further applications.
