Abstract The finite-difference time-domain method based on recursive convoltion method (RC-FDTD) for the electric anisotropic dispersive
medium is discussed in detail. To exemplify the availability of the three-dimensional RC-FDTD algorithm, the backscattering
Radar-Cross-Section(RCS) of a non-magnetized plasma sphere is computed, and the numerical results are the same as the one
of the Shift Operater-FDTD method, and show that the RC-FDTD method is correct and efficient. In addition, the co-polarized
and cross-polarized backscattering time-domain of a magnetized plasma sphere are obtained by the RC-FDTD algorithm. The results
show that when the external magnetic field is implemented, the cross-polarized component appear, evidently.
