Abstract

This paper introduced a strategy for parallel implementation of the finite-difference time-domain method (FDTD) algorithm used in COW (Cluster of Workstation) parallel computing system and PVM parallel environment. Because of the one-dimension space division, this method is efficient. Some computed examples were given to prove the feasibility and correctness of this method. This method provides a scheme for the EM computation of electrically-large-size complex object and can be used in radiation, scattering and EMC analysis.
