dc.description.abstract	The study makes use of a variation of the Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) method as first proposed by Yee to simulate electromagnetic field distribution and propagation in an open waveguide structure. In order to prove that this new method is valid, a reflection coefficient is calculated with simulation data and compared to measurements. The agreement between measurement and simulation data, while not exact, is enough to establish the veracity of the new method. This study contains a detailed discussion of the discrepancies which were observed. Also presented are colour images of the simulation which give the reader an idea as to the nature and level of detail of the information which can be obtained from the simulation.
