✦ Synopsis

This paper is a presentation of the coupling between the finite-difference time-domain method and a circuit simulator tool. This approach enables us to model the interactions between antennas and nonlinear integrated circuits. The beha¨ior of a ''Mickey'' antenna struck by a high-frequency impulsion and protected by a gas arrester will be shown.
