SEMCAD X
µWAVE Solution
SEMCAD X µWAVE
SEMCAD X µWAVE combines advanced 3D EM solvers based on the FDTD technique with a Mode-Matching solver to analyze microwave and millimeter-wave waveguide devices. The Mode-Matching technique combined with the Generalized Scattering Matrix (GSM) has been successfully applied in the analysis of many composite waveguide structures such as cavity filters, power dividers, E-plane filters, and has proved to be a power tool in the microwave industry.
Key Applications
- Passive waveguide structures composed of inline waveguide sections
- Different cross-sections: rectangular, circular, elliptical and circular/elliptical
- N-furcations and cubic junctions.
- Waveguide transformers
- High performance filters
- Multiplexers
- Polarizers
- Ortho-mode transducers.
Key Technical Features
- New state-of-the-art solver based on the Mode-Matching Technique
- Efficient & accurate analysis of composite waveguide device design problems
- Fully integrated within the SEMCAD X framework
- Extraction of full Generalized Scattering Matrix (GSM) as a building block for each waveguide structure
- Extensive CAD import interfacing (.sat, .stl, .dws, .iges, .3ds, .step, ProEngineer, etc.) enabling implementation of more complicated structures with coupling/tuning screws and any geometrical changes due to fabrication
- IGES/STEP/3DS/CATIA V4/ CATIA V5/ Pro/E(asm, prt)/ STL/ I-DEAS/ DXF
- Automated or user defined healing of CAD parts or assemblies
- OGL based 3-D QTech renderer (easy handling of >> 10'000 parts, in-house developed engine)
- Fully parameterized modeling
- Python scripter for generation of arbitrary objects (analytical, etc.)
- Automated modeling via scripting engine
- Automatic implementation and placement of different waveguide sources and port
