Abstract :
We present acceleration for numerical solving of electromagnetic (EM) problems by using method of moments (MoM) and NVIDIA graphics processing units (GPU). Three stages of MoM are accelerated: matrix fill, solution of complex linear equations and post-processing. The results show that GPUs can be efficiently used for EM simulations.
