This paper deals with a description of a new three-dimensional PIC code that can be used to model laser wakefield acceleration in the Lorentz boosted frames. The results in the present paper indicate that the use of a spectral code may be attractive for carrying out high fidelity simulating laser wakefield acceleration simulations in boosted frames at high \(\gamma_b\). Several numerical simulations are provided in the final part of this paper.
