Abstract

A Grid-enabled time-domain transmission line matrix (TLM-G) system for full-wave analysis of complex electromagnetic (EM) structures is presented. The emerging Grid technology enables distributed EM simulations in a virtual organization. An introduction to Grid computing is given and a detailed description of the layout of the TLM-G system is made. Furthermore, the measured EM performance, scalability, and accuracy of the TLM-G system are shown.
