A 3D optimised hybrid implicit–explicit finite‐difference time‐domain (HIE‐FDTD) method aimed at suppressing the numerical dispersion is proposed. Compared with the original HIE‐FDTD method, the optimised parameters are introduced without costing any additional computational resource. In addition, the proposed algorithm sacrifices Courant–Friedrichs–Lewy condition and just requires a modest amount of reprogramming. The update equations of the proposed HIE‐FDTD method are given and numerical results demonstrate that the proposed method performs better in the numerical dispersion.
