Overview Of XFdtd's Schematic Editor And Optimization For Matching Network Design

This webinar demonstrates the full range of features available to users, with a focus on recent updates that include optimization of component values, impedance and aperture tuners with tune codes, and system efficiency results.

XFdtd 3D EM Simulation Software includes a schematic editor for analyzing matching networks, corporate feed networks, and beamforming. It integrates a frequency-domain circuit solver with full-wave results. As modern wireless products require more components, shrinking the available real estate for a device’s antennas and complicating design, engineers face challenges that the schematic editor eases.

Key Takeaways:

• Optimization determines the ideal component values to meet design goals
• Availability of tune codes for impedance and aperture tuner applications
• System efficiency as a result metric
• Matching network parasitics
• Diplex matched antennas
• Beamforming
• Operating modes for simulating multi-state devices
• Slide bars for manual tuning
• SAR post-processing
