AWR and Antenna Magus Announce Joint Marketing Relationship to Accelerate Antenna Design
El Segundo, California, USA and Stellenbosch South Africa, October 10, 2011 – AWR Corporation, the innovation leader in high-frequency EDA software, and Magus (Pty) Ltd, developers of the Antenna Magus expert system for antenna synthesis, today announced a joint marketing relationship focused on
accelerating the pace of antenna design for wireless-enabled products. The first result of this relationship is
AWR Connected™ for Antenna Magus, an interface between the respective firms’ software products that expedites
antenna design from synthesis with Antenna Magus to full circuit/EM simulation with AWR’s Microwave Office™ and
AXIEM® software tools. Antenna Magus provides a database of many different highly-characterized antenna
types that can be exported to AWR’s EDA tools for EM analysis, integration, tuning, and optimization. This allows
Microwave Office and AXIEM software users to integrate antennas into their designs destined for commercial and
military terrestrial and satellite wireless communications systems of virtually any type. "Antenna design
is a complex and specialized discipline that is increasingly complicated by requirements for achieving conflicting
goals such as those posed by conformal and small form factors. By employing Antenna Magus antenna synthesis
software, users of Microwave Office and AXIEM software can integrate antennas with known characteristics within
their designs and evaluate their performance,” said Sherry Hess, vice president of marketing at AWR. “This can
save enormous amounts of time while providing a level of confidence about the antenna’s contribution to overall
performance as well. We believe our relationship with Antenna Magus adds an important new element to our design
suite.” “Antenna Magus has a database of more than 150 antennas, many of which planar,” said Sam Clarke,
founder of Magus Pty Ltd, “and many can already be used within Microwave Office and AXIEM software with more to
come. The new relationship announced today not only expands the designer’s flexibility through greater antenna
choice but does so in a highly integrated fashion within the AWR Design Environment”. Pricing and
