Software orchestrates microwave modelling
Vector Fields has upgraded its Concerto software for three-dimensional analysis and design of microwave components such as antennas, waveguides, microstrips and microwave heating etc.
Simulation optimises design of antenna array
A circular polarised patch antenna has recently been simulated using software from Vector Fields, and the simulation considerably reduced the development time.
Tempo can run as part of Opera 9 or can stand alone.
Vector Fields has always had a strong presence in providing consulting services in modelling and design.
The reasons customers require these services vary, with the most common being: one-off problems for which investment in in-house skills is not economical; difficult problems which go beyond their existing experience; or peak demand on their own experienced users.
Increasingly in recent times some companies are relying on outsourcing some of the design needs, and electromagnetics are no different - indeed their specialist nature adds to the above problems.
Vector Fields offices in both Europe and USA have seen this work almost double in recent months, and the company's agents and distributors - many of whom also provide this service - report similar activity.
The range of problems tackled are wide and includes: electromagnetic interference from railway systems; induction heating processes for chemical and metal industries; miniature cathode ray tube for aircraft visualisation equipment; electrostatic precipitation on oil production platform; medical imaging magnets; turbine generators; accelerator magnets; and X-ray tubes.
