MicroWave Design Studio

We are mainly using direct solvers of Maxwell’s equations based on FDTD (Finite-Difference Time-Domain) method. Such approach is suitable to investigate electrodynamics phenomena in a way that is very close to reality eg. with observation of transients. This method tells much more about possible issues than analyzing steady state exclusively.

We are able to create and analyze large and complex 3D models. Calculations, which are demanding in terms of computer memory and time of execution are run in parallel on multi-CPU shared and distributed memory computers. Simulations with efficient parallel processing open the possibility of much more detailed analysis and investigation of:
- electrically large compounds of devices that consist of big and small elements in the same structure e.g. large and compound antennas,
- small devices with surrounding environment e.g. microwave measurement systems, microwave scanning,
- propagation and coupling properties with environmental influence (and possibility to observe transient states) e.g. wireless communication, sensor networks, RFID systems, electromagnetic compatibility problems,
- modelling and analysis of other types of large and complex structures in MW/HF research or industrial applications.

Such electromagnetic simulations help to reveal properties of complex devices and systems, which can be observed mainly through expensive experiments. Additionally, the physical design process can be further improved and accelerated thus reducing the necessity of building prototypes.

Apart from electrodynamics phenomena, we also provide other types of analysis, like temperature distribution in a structure due to electromagnetic energy dissipation. Such combined analysis can be useful not only in electronics, but also in other industries.
