Feature Preview of FEKO Suite 5.4
FEKO Suite 5.4 is due to be released soon and will bring the customer a range of new and improved features. Some of these features that customers
can look forward to include:
． Waveguide ports are fully specifiable in CADFEKO.
Including a waveguide port will be as simple as selecting a face of a model and clicking on the appropriate button. The primary propagating mode will automatically be computed for the selected waveguide port.
． Specification of symmetry is fully supported in CADFEKO.
The model is still drawn as a full 3D model、but the CADFEKO mesher will obey symmetry specifications to create appropriate meshes for the exploitation of symmetry.
． The MoM/FEM hybrid has been parallelised.
Users will now be able to solve large MoM/FEM problems in parallel for all solution phases.
． Waveguide ports can now be included in models where PO is used to model electrically large surfaces.
In reflector antenna analysis the horn antenna may be fed with a waveguide source.
． Infinite general periodic boundary conditions are available for the simulation of large periodic structures、e.g. antenna arrays、FSS or 2D MoM problems.
． DXF geometry import filter for CADFEKO.
． Various CAD export filters. In addition to Parasolid CADFEKO now also exports ACIS、STEP、IGES、Catia v4 and Catia v5 CAD formats.
． Importing of CAD models with faults and fault highlighting.
In the past CADFEKO refused to import CAD data where the models contained  geometry faults. This is now allowed、with features added to help find
the faulty elements.
． Stitching method for CAD manipulation.
Surfaces of adjacent geometry faces which are in close proximity to each other、but that do not touch、can now be stitched together to form a continuous surface.
． Optimisation masks that allow users to optimise a result to a pattern、rather than just to a single value. E.g. optimising a microstrip filter to have S11 equal to -15dB in the passband and S21 of -20 dB in the stopband.
． Printing、image export and copy to clipboard are supported for model views in CADFEKO.
