Abstract: A novel finite-difference time-domain(FDTD) method combined with semi-analytical recursive convolution (SARC) algorithm in digital signal processing(DSP) techniques is presented to analyze electromagnetic scattering by dispersive media.Absolute stability,high accuracy,less storage and high effectiveness are retained while a unified update formulation is possessed.It can be applied to analysis of general dispersive media provided that the poles and corresponding coefficients in dispersive medium are given.Finally,the proposed SARC-FDTD approach is validated.RCS of an object coated with plasma are calculated.

Key words: finite difference time-domain, dispersive media, recursive convolution, plasma
