Object Oriented Microwave Circuit Simulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
An object-oriented microwave circuit simulation environment is described. The design of the program is intended to offer flexibility without sacrifying efficiency. Recent developments in object-oriented techniques and in C++ compilers are used to obtain a flexible and robust system ideally suited to the development of a global modeling strategy for the integration of circuit, field, thermal and mechanical analyses. The simulation of spatial power combining systems is used as a vehicle to illustrate the architectural developments of the system.

متن کاملSimulation, Fabrication and Testing of a Left-handed Microstrip Coupler
A broadband left-handed parallel-line microstrip coupler is implemented by both electromagnetic simulation and actual fabrication. The circuit dimensions are smaller and more compact than those in previous studies and a thinner Duroid substrate of thickness h 0.635 mm is used. Parametric studies were performed using IE3D, and fabrication was done via a Quick Circuit 7000 prototyping machine. Th...
