Abstract
In this paper, the time domain Maxwell's equations are solved using the discrete exterior calculus (DEC) formalism in the two-dimensional space. To truncate the computational domain, the complex frequency-shifted perfectly matched layer (CFS-PML) concept is applied to create a reflectionless artificial layer. The paper presents a new numerical procedure to easily implement the CFS-PML with curved inner boundary. In order to numerically realize the PML, in a simplicial mesh, this paper proposes to utilize the nearest neighbor algorithm to associate point sets to boundary points. The distance from points to the boundary curve defines the attenuation function inside the PML. The performance of the approach is assessed by measuring the reflection error for three numerical experiments.
