Based on a transformation of the time-varying current density of the particle into a time-harmonic current density, this technique allows the evaluation of the radiated electromagnetic fields both in the frequency and time domains, as well as in the near- and far-field regions. For this purpose, several accelerated versions of the parallel-plate Green’s function in the frequency domain have been considered. The theory has been successfully applied to the multipactor discharge occurring within a two metal-plates region. The proposed formulation has been tested with a particle-in-cell code based on the finite- difference time-domain method, obtaining good agreement. %K Teoría de la Señal y las Comunicaciones %K Multipactor effect %K Parallel plate waveguide %K Green's functions %K Image theory %K 3325 Tecnología de las Telecomunicaciones %~ GOEDOC, SUB GOETTINGEN
