Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) To assess the actual performance of UWB transmission systems, various relative angles between the transmitting antenna and the receiving antenna must been evaluated, considering the actual relative positions of mobile terminals. In the case of far-field conditions, the transmission model can be described using the angular characteristics of the antenna transfer functions. In contrast, in the case of near-field conditions, 3D-conformal FDTD technique or high-resolution staircase approximation can be generally used to obtain accurate results for the skewed models where the transmitting and receiving antennas are not placed in parallel. However, these two solutions take significant calculation time because the analytical models should be prepared as a parameter of the angle between both antennas. Therefore, the MRFDTD (Multi-Region FDTD) method, which incorporates the separated multi-analytical region using near-field to near-field transformation (NFNFTF) as one of the more convenient solutions, was reported in the past. While several studies and results with NFNFTF based on the time-domain implementation have been reported, time-domain NFNFTF in practice has some problems. For example, the waveform interpolation and the random memory access caused by the time-shift from the source point to the observation point is not appropriate for parallel computing. In this paper, the MR-FDTD method using frequency-domain NFNFTF will be discussed.
