GPU Acceleration of Multilevel Solvers for Analysis of Microwave Components With Finite Element Method

The letter discusses a fast implementation of the conjugate gradient iterative method with ${rm E}$-field multilevel preconditioner applied to solving real symmetric and sparse systems obtained with vector finite element method. In order to accelerate computations, a graphics processing unit (GPU) was used and significant speed-up (2.61 fold) was achieved comparing to a central processing unit (CPU) based approach. These results indicate that performance of electromagnetic simulations can be significantly improved thereby enabling full wave optimization of microwave components in more manageable time.
