| Abstract: | We review OSA’s products for microwave circuit optimization. Emphasis is on recent advances in the state of the art in automated electromagnetic (EM) design. The integrated CAD environment facilitates EM optimization of linear and nonlinear microwave circuits. We combine EM analyses of passive structures with circuit models of active devices for large-signal nonlinear harmonic balance optimization, even for yield-driven design. Designs of a class B frequency doubler and a waveguide mitered bend illustrate the approach and its benefits. |
