W2405 Agilent FDTD Simulator Element

The W2405 Agilent FDTD Simulation Element is Electromagnetic Professional's (EMPro's) simulation engine based on the Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) modeling technique.

FDTD 3D EM simulation technology is an alternative to the frequency domain-based Finite Element Method (FEM). Because of its simple, robust nature and its ability to incorporate a broad range of nonlinear materials and devices, FDTD is useful for a wide range of applications such as antenna design, microwave circuits, bio/EM effects, EMC/EMI problems and photonics.

Compared to FEM, FDTD is better suited for structures that are large compared to the wavelength of interest. Examples are antenna simulations that include the entire mobile phone and human body, and channel/backplane simulations for signal integrity applications. For more information on the relative strengths of FEM and FDTD technologies, please refer to State of the Art in EM Software for Microwave Engineers.

The W2405 Agilent FDTD Simulator Element provides the ability to run FDTD simulations from the EMPro 3D EM Platform (note that the W2401 EMPro Core Environment is required).

Options:

• Perform regulatory compliance tests such as hearing-aid compatibility (HAC) and specific absorption rate (SAR) by adding the W2406 Compliance Element.
• Increase FDTD simulation speed and capacity by 10x through parallelization on graphical processor unit (GPU) hardware using the W2408 FDTD GT Acceleration Element.

EMPro enables you to simulate the effect of antennas embedded in real-word surroundings.
