Abstract

The paper presents a new technique to solve large electromagnetic scattering problems, based on dividing the computational domain into smaller sub-domains and solving each sub-domain separately. Then, after performing a number of interactions between the sub-domains, the solution for the complete domain can be defined. An iterative approach using the FDFD method is presented to solve this class of problems that can be divided into separated sub-domains.
