International audienceAn efficient technique to provide fast and accurate analysis of wide-band surrounded antennas mounted on electrically large platforms is presented and validated in this paper. The hybrid method combines Dual-Grid FDTD (DG-FDTD) with Iterative Physical Optics (IPO) to analyze on-platform antenna radiation. In section IV of this paper, DG-FDTD/IPO is applied to the analysis of a wide-band antenna mounted on a vehicle. The ability to address the problem of antenna placement is also demonstrated
