![Upcoming Webinar: Overview of Xfdtd's Schematic Editor and Optimization for Matching Network Design](https://cdn.everythingrf.com/website/global/gray-svg-image.svg)
Remcom will be hosting a webinar (July 10 and July 16) that demonstrates the full range of features of its XFdtd software available to users, with a focus on recent updates that include optimization of component values, impedance and aperture tuners with tune codes, and system efficiency results.
XFdtd 3D EM Simulation Software includes a schematic editor for analyzing matching networks, corporate feed networks, and beamforming. It integrates a frequency-domain circuit solver with full-wave results. As modern wireless products require more components, shrinking the available real estate for a device’s antennas and complicating design, engineers face challenges that this schematic editor eases.
Key Takeaways from this Webinar
- Optimization determines the ideal component values to meet design goals
- Availability of tune codes for impedance and aperture tuner applications
- System efficiency as a result metric
- Matching network parasitics
- Diplex matched antennas
- Beamforming
- Operating modes for simulating multi-state devices
- Slide bars for manual tuning
- SAR post-processing

The schematic editor includes an analysis workbench that provides sliders for tuning. Tuning is used to determine component values that meet performance metrics. It also allows users to see how a matching network’s behavior varies with each individual component.
Steady-state Full-wave Results

In addition to the standard components listed above, XF’s schematic editor allows users to seamlessly specify operating modes and multi-state devices.
When a schematic is applied to an FDTD simulation, the following steady-state full-wave results will update:
- Port data including S-parameters, VSWR
- System and radiation efficiencies
- Available, input, dissipated, and radiated powers
- Near field sensors
- Far field sensors
