Abstract

This paper deals with the implementation of the vector FDTD-method for solving of combined Maxwell’s equations on GPU. The implementation of the algorithm for two-dimensional problem on graphics processor NVIDIA GeForce GT 240 using CUDA-technology demonstrates computational speedup in 42.9 times as against with computations has been made on central processor  Intel Core Duo E6500. The future prospects of mesh domain decomposition application are considered in this article for the implementation of the vector FDTD-method on GPU.
