Software looks at RF design from all
angles

Software enables novel simulation capabilities for the design of sophisticated RF, microwave and photonics components.

The RF Module for Comsol Multiphysics enables novel simulation capabilities for the design of today's sophisticated RF, microwave, and photonics components, and in general the software makes it easier than ever to study components and systems that deal with propagating electromagnetic waves With it users can design and prototype devices for the transmission, guiding, receiving and filtering/processing of electromagnetic waves in applications where the range of frequencies spans from radio to optical

With the module, users can consider all sorts of multiphysics effects including the interconnection of electromagnetics phenomena with heat transfer, structural mechanics, and more.

For instance, it is possible to see the effects of heating on the frequency response of a microwave filter.

Users can also see in high-power microwave waveguides or switches how close a design gets to safety margins before electric breakdown of air or a gas occurs.
