Mician uwave Wizard 8.0µWave Wizard is a design tool using the well-known fast and accurate Mode-Matching technique. This method is particularly suitable for simulation and optimization of passive microwave systems and components, including antennas. The mode matching method (MM) and their derivatives (i.e. the fast hybrid MM/boundary contour and the MM/2D-finite-element method) is the only method capable of simultaneously offering fastest processing speed and highest accuracy. Mician’s software developers\’ secret for speed is to avoid the use of time consuming 3D solvers wherever possible and to focus on applying the Mode-Matching Technique and its derivatives instead, even on structures that at first glance seem to be suited for 3D solvers only. Yet, a 3D FEM solver on element level is...
