Parallel implementation of the hybrid MoM/Green's function technique on a cluster of workstations

In this paper a parallel version of the hybrid method of moments/Green's function technique is presented for the analysis of portable hand-held transceivers radiating close to the human head. As compared to other numerical techniques, this formulation leads to a drastic reduction in memory requirement and because of the parallel implementation gives also acceptable execution times. After a brief description of the theory and the parallel processing, an example is presented which demonstrates the very efficient parallelisation using the message passing interface standard even on an inhomogeneous cluster of workstations.
