An improved finite-direrence time-domain (FDTD) method has been extended to analyze the antennas with complicated lumped/active networks in this paper. The improved FDTD method is based on a novel integral transform and the matrix theory. Combining the novel integral transform with Kirchhor's circuit laws, the hybrid networks comprised of high order linear and nonlinear elements with arbitrary connection can be modeled by a stable matrix equation. An erective model is built for linear lumped networks including internal independent sources. A wire antenna loaded with wide band match network and a two-element active patch antenna loaded with Gunn diodes are analyzed by the developed techniques. The analysis results indicate that the improved matrix-type FDTD method is not only stab le and accurate, but also time-saving in simulating the complicated hybrid networks.
