Abstract
In this letter, a parallel preconditioned FEM-BEM method is presented for the solution of challenging electromagnetic (EM) field problems, especially for calculating the radiation characteristics of electrically large radome antenna systems. A preconditioner that combining the absorbing boundary condition (ABC) with the improved additive schwarz method is first proposed for the FEM-BEM system to improve the convergence. Then, an efficient parallel framework based on message passing interface (MPI) and open multi-processing (OpenMP) is designed to achieve massively distributed parallelization of the method. Numerical results demonstrate the benefits of the proposed preconditioner over traditional additive schwarz method, as well as the accuracy and parallel scalability of the implemented method. Finally, a complex EM system consisting of a waveguide slot antenna array and a dielectric radome with more than 127 medium wavelengths is simulated to verify the capability and effectiveness of the presented method.
