Vector Fields, a business unit of ERA Technology Ltd, a part of the Cobham Avionics and Surveillance Division of Cobham plc, released on Monday (16 June) a new version of its Concerto software tool for high-frequency electromagnetic design.
According to the company, Concerto v7 introduces improvements to accelerate the speed of simulation and optimization, including 64-bit PC processing support, better distributed processing of simulations, improved support for exploiting periodicity in designs, and an innovative optimization tool that intelligently applies multiple algorithms to resolve complex problems.

The new release reportedly provides a comprehensive 2D or 3D design-simulate-analyze-optimize toolchain for high-frequency electromagnetic applications. Component or system models can be created using an integrated geometric modeler, or imported from CAD programs. CAD formats supported include CATIA, ProEngineer, IGES, SAT and STEP.
In addition, Concerto offers a Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) simulator, which has broad ranging applicability. Depending on the application, users can add two further simulation options: a Method of Moments (MoM) tool provides a platform for simulating large environment problems such as installed antenna performance, while a Finite Element Method (FEM) tool enables users to perform eigenvalue analysis for problems such as characterizing microwave resonator and cavity designs.
Concerto's applications include antennas, waveguides, cavities and resonators, filters, connectors, microwave heating, and radar systems and signatures, the company said. The solution is available in a range of 2D and 3D versions, starting from GBP2500 / USD4750.
