Demonstration of Full-Wave Matching Circuit Optimization in XFdtd
This video gives a demonstration of Full-Wave Antenna Matching Circuit Optimization using XFdtd's Circuit Element Optimizer (CEO). The antenna matching circuit design flow is discussed, including CEO's analysis of a given PCB layout. Predicted S-parameters and optimal component value results for two different frequency bands are also shown.

Tuning a Microstrip Lens in Rotman Lens Designer (RLD) and Options for Importing to XFdtd
In this video, a Remcom engineer walks through the steps to set up and tune a Ku Band microstrip lens in Rotman Lens Designer (RLD). Included is a discussion of the various options for exporting the file and importing into XFdtd EM Simulation Software, including the use of a customized script to automatically set up the ports and include the material properties.

Using XFdtd and XGtd to Design and Analyze a Helical Antenna on a Satellite
Using the pre-loaded scripting library in XFdtd, this video demonstrates simulation of a helical antenna, which is then imported into XGtd for analysis on a satellite. See how XFdtd’s scripting language helps to quickly automate advanced modeling tasks. After the 3D far field pattern is imported into XGtd, the video shows how the software calculates the interaction of the antenna with an electrically large object -- in this case a satellite.
Importing a CAD Model and Assigning Material Properties in XFdtd
This video demonstrates how XFdtd allows the user to create and manipulate extremely detailed models. A CAD model of a sedan is imported and then material properties are assigned for each part. The result is a very accurate model of the vehicle which can be used as a test bed for antenna simulations.
Antenna Design and Real World Analysis with XFdtd and Wireless InSite
This video shows how XF and Wireless InSite complement each other to allow a designer complete freedom in the creation, simulation and analysis of an antenna. A monopole antenna is prototyped and placed on the roof of a sedan in XF. The resulting simulation is then imported into Wireless InSite in order to analyze the energy propagation in a real city.
