Abstract

In the framework of the Antenna Centre of Excellence (ACE), we have proposed the integration of the compressed block decomposition (CBD) solver in the finite array GSM code. The aim of this software integration is to deal with very large finite arrays. Although finite array GSM Code allows us to analyze large finite arrays, the size of the array is limited if a conventional direct solver is used. The integration of the CBD solver increases the capabilities of the Finite Array GSM Code making it possible to study larger arrays. In this work we discuss this integration process. Finally, an example of the capabilities of the integrated code will be shown.
