Collective effects due to wake fields are a limiting factor in almost every new front line accelerator. Since the early 80's computer codes such as TBCI and MAFIA have been developed for computing wake fields in realistic accelerator structures. With the advent of linear collider studies and small wavelength FEL projects these codes had to face a severe limitation. For the very short bunches in these new accelerators combined with the need for an analysis of very long sections the discrete dispersion became a serious drawback. This effect of having only discrete field values rather than continous ones can be overcome by special algorithms such as semi-implicit integrators as used e.g. in the wake field code ECHO. In this paper we present a new explicit approach which combines the advantage of explicit algorithms (fast) with the absence of dispersion in beam direction.
