  8. Fourier PSFD • Liu extended the pseudospectral methods to the frequency domain (2002). • All proposed PSFD methods used Chebyshev basis functions. • However for periodic structures, trigonometric basis functions will be much more suitable. In addition,using trigonometric functions, we can benefit from characteristics of Fourier series, and that is why we call this method Fourier PSFD • Conventional single-domain PSFD methods suffer from staircasing error. • This error will not be reduced unless the number of discretization points increases. • To overcome this difficulty in a multidomain method, curved geometries should be divided into several subdomains whereas this method is complicated and time consuming to some extend. • We used a new technique to overcome the staircasing error in a single-domain PSFD method. • We formulate the constitutive relations with the help of a convolution in the spatial frequency domain.
