Sonnet Software, Inc. is pleased to offer North American customers a powerful Full 3D EM analysis capability for 3D structures in CST MICROWAVE STUDIOŽ 2006. Sonnet has joined CST of America's representative groups to offer additional support and sales to a growing customer base. 

CST MICROWAVE STUDIOŽ is aimed at a broad spectrum of full 3D high frequency structures. Click on the following links for application examples highlighting its power and capability.

Signal Integrity
Signal Integrity
Transmission lines can be studied and optimized for signal integrity. Vias in multilayer boards, connectors, and other structures can be simulated to obtain cross talk, mode conversion, TDR impedance, SPICE models, and eye diagrams.

Examples:
    Differential Via Pair
    Multipin Connector
    SI Design from Allegro

EMI
EMC/EMI
Electromagnetic radiation from electronic components and radiation into housing can be studied with Microwave Studio. Field monitors are used to determine the EMC spectrum at the standard 3 and 10 meters distances. Linear or circularly polarized plane waves can be used to illuminate a housing to study EMI effects.
Antenna and RCS
 
Antenna and RCS
The FI technique in the time domain solver of Microwave Studio requires less memory for large problems than FE methods. You can simulate radiation problems on your PC such as large finite arrays. RCS studies can be done with plane wave illumination of a model.  The Floquet mode ports in the frequency domain solver give highly accurate results for infinite arrays scanned off bore sight.

Examples:
    Infinite Array Normal Phasing
    Infinite Array Off-Normal Phasing
    Large Finite Phased Array
    Dipole Receiving Array
    Optimization of Antenna Gain
    Broadband RCS of a UAV
 

Waveguide Components
Waveguide Components
Waveguide components such as a slab polarizer are easily modeled in Microwave Studio. Gyrotropic materials can be used to simulate circulators and similar devices.
 
Metamaterials
Metamaterials
Metamaterials are assemblies of bodies which collectively have a behavior of a material with novel properties. Left-handed materials, artificial magnetic conductors, frequency selective surfaces, and other metamaterials have been studied using Microwave Studio.
Cell Phone/Human Body Interaction
Cell Phone/Human Body Interaction
Analysis of a cell phone and antenna model in free space, and next to a detailed human head model. This example demonstrates CST's new Human Body Mesh interface, which provides very detailed human body/tissue mesh models.
