Agilent releases new version of its 3D electromagnetic simulation platform

Agilent Technologies has released new version of its 3-D electromagnetic modeling and simulation platform EMPro for creating 3-D models and analyzing the electrical performance of packages, connectors, antennas, and other RF components.

EMPro is tightly integrated with Agilent's Advanced Design System for the design of RF and high-speed circuits, modules and PC boards.

For the finite-difference time-domain solver, EMPro 2011.02 adds a new meshing option that creates mesh cells that more closely conform to curved surfaces and non-orthogonal edges.

For the finite element-method frequency-domain solver, EMPro 2011.02 delivers several new meshing options that allow engineers to more precisely specify the desired mesh structure along conductor edges, surfaces and vertices.

Agilent's EMPro 2011.02 is now available for download at www.agilent.com/find/eesof-empro2011.
