Muehlhaus Inductor Toolkit for ADS assists you to synthesize the best possible RFIC inductor layout. The software has now been updated to support ADS2015.01. The free version for GPDK180 technology (fully functional until 30 June 2015) can be found here: Free Demo: RFIC Inductor Synthesis for GPDK180
Microwave Office: PCB antenna simulation 868MHz
Published on 23, Jan
In part one of this application note we had discussed basic design concepts and simulation methods for “printed” PCB antennas. Now in this second part, we will discuss advanced topics: Co-simulation of antenna and SMD matching components for electrically small antennas Using the Analyst 3D FEM solver to include the effect of finite PCB size, […]
Microwave Office: PCB antenna simulation 2.4GHz/5.6GHz
Published on 16, Jan
This document describes the design and simulation of simple PCB antennas for 2.4GHz and 5.6GHz with Microwave Office and the Axiem EM simulator. The first example shows a 2.4GHz single band antenna. The second example then shows a dual band version for 2.4GHz and 5.6GHz. Finally, we will investigate the sensitivity to PCB material tolerances. […]
