Yee's scheme for the integration of Maxwell's equation on unstructured meshes

The co-volume integration method, Yee's scheme, generalized to unstructured mesh is considered and compared with time domain finite element method (TDFE). In order to generate the meshes for which a good quality dual mesh is ensured, a new point placing method for the generation of meshes appropriate for the use of the co-volume method is proposed. Numerical examples are presented which demonstrate the consistency and performance of the co-volume method.
