Although the commercialization of LTE technology began in end 2009, the technology is still being enhanced in order to meet ITU-Advanced requirements. This application note summarizes these necessary improvements, which are known as LTE-Advanced.

When simulating a complete subsystem such as a wireless communication device or radar receiver, the quality of measurement data becomes essential to ensure that the finished product meets or exceeds the demands the system will encounter in service.

This white paper, written by EM expert Dr. John Dunn, demonstrates the importance of correctly selecting and assigning “ground” within EM simulators and how it is essential for successfully predicting the performance of board, package, and their associated interconnects.

This application note describes how to interface R&S ZVA/ZVB/ZVT vector network analyzer with AWR electronic design automation (EDA) software.

Understanding Available Tools for RF System-in-Package and Multi-Chip-Module Design and Optimization

Since the year 2010 commercialization of the LTE technology is taking place. At the same time further enhancements of the LTE technology are worked on in order to meet ITU-Advanced requirements. This application note summarizes these necessary improvements known as LTE Advanced.

As technology has advanced, tools have been developed that go beyond merely analyzing devices to tools that design devices. These tools allow the user to select basic structures with variable dimensions, size constraints, and performance goals and then iterate automatically until the best possible design is found. The user is freed from the burden of monitoring the progress of each individual simulation and can devote time to other tasks. This evolutionary step in simulation software is improving the productivity of engineers developing nextgeneration devices in a variety of fields.

CST STUDIO SUITE™ 2010 is the culmination of many years of research and development into the most accurate and efficient computational solutions for electromagnetic designs. It comprises CST's tools for the design and optimization of devices operating in a wide range of frequencies - static to optical. Analyses may include thermal and mechanical effects, as well as circuit simulation. All programs are accessible through a common interface which facilitates multi-physics and co-simulation.
