Goal(s)
“Modeling and Simulation Techniques for RF System Design”
• To be able to make the connection between mathematical expressions (Maxwell's equations) and the use of commercial CAD RF software.
• To be able to plot, represent with figures expressions that describe physical properties such as wave propagation, EM radiation from antennas.
• To be able to use the main functions available in the common computational software (MATLAB) to address electromagnetic problems. Develop basic knowledge on MATLAB to solve partial differential equations that can be find in electromagnetic problems.
• To be able to provide theoretical elements of comparison through the implementation of various numerical methods (finite differences, method of moment, finite elements ...).
• To be able to show limitations (2D geometry problem, 2½ D, 3D, computation time, memory ...) that can result from using one method over another, that is to say, one commercial software compared to another. Allow students to choose the good way to solve EM problems.
• To be able to correctly use commercial EM simulators (Ansoft Designer & HFSS).
