Popis: This paper presents simulation of large-scale antenna arrays on parallel platforms with a conventional MoM technique (such as mixed potential integral equation). We discuss parallel schemes for partitioning large-sized geometry files, computation and storage of system matrix, and parallel solution process. In addition, we briefly explain a parallel algorithm for radiation pattern computation in the partitioning scheme. Lastly, we demonstrate application of the developed schemes to a 256-element slot-coupled patch antenna array with 101,555 unknowns. The size of partitioned geometry files, simulation time, and computed radiation pattern are presented as results.
