摘要
A flexible and universal domain decomposition parallel scheme is proposed for the unconditionally stable finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. The leapfrog alternating direction implicit FDTD (ADI-FDTD) method is employed to eliminate the restriction of the Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy stability condition. The proposed domain decomposition parallel implementation of the leapfrog ADI-FDTD method is more flexible with process allocation and requires fewer data communications. A buffer region is introduced to decouple the interactions between neighboring subdomains at each time step. Electromagnetic simulations are presented to demonstrate the applicability, accuracy, and efficiency of the proposed method.
