Higher-order Time Domain Finite Element Method (TDFEM) based on the nodal inter- polation is proposed for two-dimensional electromagnetic analysis. The detailed algorithms of the method are presented firstly, and then the accuracy, CPU time and memory consumption of the higher-order node-based TDFEM are investigated. The high performance of the presented approach is validated by numerical results of the transient responses of Transverse Electric (TE) field and Transverse Magnetic (TM) field in a rectangular waveguide.
