Simulation of Airborne Antenna Array Layout Problems Using Parallel Higher-Order MoM

Abstract EN

The parallel higher-order Method of Moments based on message passing interface (MPI) has been successfully used to analyze the changes in radiation patterns of a microstrip patch array antenna mounted on different positions of an airplane.

The block-partitioned scheme for the large dense MoM matrix and a block-cyclic matrix distribution scheme are designed to achieve excellent load balance and high parallel efficiency.

Numerical results demonstrate that the rigorous parallel Method of Moments can efficiently and accurately solve large complex electromagnetic problems with composite structures.
