| Abstract: | This research concentrates on developing a complete theoretical tool to analyze the electronic mode‐stirred reverberating chamber. A 2D modeling of the EM fields is performed, which can then readily be extended to a 3D analysis of the cavity. The finite‐difference time‐domain (FDTD) method is implemented to discretize the Maxwell's equations. With our newly proposed method, the electromagnetic‐field characteristics can be easily studied inside the reverberating chamber under a realistic circumstance, thus opening doors to the analysis of a large spectrum of problems related to both commercial and military applications. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
