| Abstract: | The goal of this work is to solve Maxwell equations analytically and numerically in a one-dimensional case under the conditions of a nonstationary medium. Analytical solutions to the Maxwell equations have been obtained in two partial cases of the linear and quadratic time dependence of medium permittivity. Since the number of models for which the wave equation can be solved analytically is limited, it becomes also necessary to apply numerical methods, specifically the method of finite differences, in a time domain Finite Difference Time Domain method. The effects of the decameter wave dynamic reflection from structures with considerable spatial gradients (the scales of which are comparable with the sounding pulse wavelength) have been studied based on this method. It has been shown that the spectrum can broaden and a Doppler frequency shift of a reflected signal can originate can take place. |
