Computational electromagnetics now offers a viable alternative to measurement and asymptotic analyses for solving many complex antenna and scattering problems. Typical potential applications include radar cross section (RCS) prediction of metallic and non-metallic convex and concave scattering bodies, as well as the quantitative calculation of antenna radiation patterns and self and mutual antenna impedances. In this paper, we employ a functional decomposition approach to generate a solution method for time domain integral equations on a network of T800 transputers. The method shows high performance figures, with execution times rivalling those on powerful single processor workstations. We show how the numerical time stepping scheme can be transformed into a distributed memory parallel network which is scalable and shows high efficiency. Further, we show that generation of a scalable algorithm is not straightforward and requires some care in the analysis of communication and processing overheads. However, with the important observation that the algorithm can be made scalable, we can then solve for the scattering by electrically large structures simply by employing more processors.
