The centre's students, faculty and other members will use the software to help them design, analyse and understand wired, optical, and wireless networks and systems.
"Ansoft's tools will be an integral part of our research", said Dan Stancil, CWBN Director and Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Carnegie Mellon.
"We're glad to have Ansoft as one of our first partners and look forward to using their innovative software tools to advance our understanding of networks and telecommunications".
The centre, founded in 2001 and publicly announced this past April, was designed to create and disseminate knowledge about advanced heterogeneous networks through research, teaching, and technology transfer.
The centre, featuring more than 20 Carnegie Mellon faculty members and more than 50 research projects, is organised into four distinct areas of expertise, including networking, wireless communication, telecommunications policy, and optical communications.
"We're pleased to provide our software to CWBN", said Dr Zoltan J Cendes, Ansoft's Chairman and Chief Technology Officer and Adjunct Professor at Carnegie Mellon.
"The contribution not only establishes a partnership with the Center, but it also represents our continuing effort to foster the development of engineering skills throughout the electronic-design community".
