We summarize the boundary and source implementation for several formulations of discontinuous Galerkin time domain method (DGTD). Since DGTD with zeroth-order scalar basis functions using upwind flux, coincides finite volume (FVTD), many concepts developed FVTD can be ported to in any its different (scalar/vector basis, upwind/centered flux). Numerical examples illustrate alternatives.
