Abstract :
The parallel FDTD method based on MPI is studied on high-performance computer clusters. This paper proposed several key aspects involved in the parallel computation of the FDTD. Results of a numerical example of a trihedral corner reflector, which divided the computing space to N times M times P (N, M, P ges 3) sub-domains, demonstrate the validity of the proposed parallel FDTD.
