EL SEGUNDO, Calif. – July 21, 2014 – NI (formerly AWR Corporation)
has released V11.01 of the NI AWR Design Environment™
with enhancements to Analyst™ 3D finite element
method (FEM) EM simulation engine that cuts simulation times by as much as 70 percent over previous versions. The
updates in V11.01, which are specific to Analyst, include algorithm reformulations/enhancements to both automatic
mesh refinement (AMR) and fast frequency sweeps. For high-port-count designs (10+ ports), the speed improvements seen
with Analyst are the most pronounced.
In addition to Analyst enhancements, V11.01 offers numerous other enhancements:
- Data set enhancements
-
Layout
and user interface improvements
- Additional geometry simplification rules
- Expanded measurements for circuit and system-level designs
- Simulation technology improvements:
- Visual System Simulator™ (VSS)
- APLAC harmonic balance
- AXIEM 3D planar EM
