Implementable space mapping approach to enhancement of microwave device models

We present advances in microwave and RF device modeling exploiting the Space Mapping (SM) technology. New SM-based modeling techniques are proposed that are easy to implement entirely in the Agilent ADS framework. This makes the SM modeling concept available to engineers through widely used commercial software. It permits the creation of library models that can be used for model enhancement of microwave elements. A set of four different SM-based models is presented along with corresponding implementations in the ADS schematic for a microstrip right-angle bend and a microstrip shaped T-junction. Fine model data is obtained from Sonnet’s em.
