Abstract :
We propose a multigrid alternating-direction implicit (ADI) method for solving Maxwell´s equations in this paper. This method is based on the interpretation of the ADI method as an iterative solver of the Crank-Nicolson (CN) scheme. By introducing a special solving procedure for the residual equation within the ADI framework, multigrid schemes are incorporated into the iterative ADI method. The accuracy and efficiency of the proposed multigrid ADI method are further demonstrated by numerical examples.
