Synopsis

The authors begin by describing the more popular numerical methods for solving Maxwell's equations by means of electromagnetic simulators or field solvers. They then discuss meshing, convergence, and de-embedding, and explain how to model microstrip components, vias, multilayer printed circuit boards, connectors, backward wave couplers, and filters. Design case studies demonstrate the trade-offs and compromises that must be made to get an efficient solution, and document situations where the modeling process did not work correctly the first time and what was needed to correct the model. False color current and field plots are provided. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
