Press release – April 9, 2013
-- Easy-to-use simultaneous
multiport matching
in Optenni Lab 2.0
Optenni
Ltd announces a new version of the
Optenni
Lab matching circuit optimization and antenna analysis software
featuring a unique easy-to-use simultaneous multiport matching capability
for antennas and other RF applications.
The work of an antenna
engineer is becoming increasingly complex due to the growing number
of radio systems, frequency bands and antennas. Especially the introduction
of diversity and MIMO technologies increases the complexity of antenna
design in mobile devices. At the same time, the mobile companies are
striving to reduce the design times of mobile devices and to reduce
the total antenna space.
Matching circuits are more and more
being used to reduce the design times and to increase the efficiency
of antennas in mobile devices. With matching circuits, the impedance
match and efficiency of antennas can be improved significantly faster
than redesigning the physical antenna geometry. Moreover, with matching
circuits last-minute design changes can be easily incorporated to the
devices.
 However,
the use of matching circuits must be done in a careful way. First, it
is important to maximize the efficiency of the power transfer between
the amplifier and the load instead of the impedance match as such. Second,
the effects of real component models and their tolerance variations
need to be taken into account. Both these factors are taken care in
the easy-to-use Optenni Lab matching circuit software, an innovation
leader in the field of matching circuit design.
With Optenni
Lab 2.0 simultaneous multiport matching becomes significantly easier
and faster than before. The multiport matching is available in two operation
modes: for antenna applications the efficiency of each antenna port
is maximized, taken into account the losses in the matching components
and the coupling between the antenna ports; for other RF applications,
such as filters or amplifiers, suitable S parameters, such as S21, are
maximized over given frequency ranges. In both operation modes, minimum
isolation and stop band requirements can be easily integrated into the
design process. The multiport optimization works with any number of
ports and supports the easy-to-use component library and tolerance analysis
of Optenni Lab.
“The multiport capabilities in Optenni Lab 2.0
are a significant step forward in helping our customers to solve their
complex antenna design problems”, said Dr. Jussi Rahola, founder and
Managing Director of Optenni Ltd. "We have received very positive and
delighted feedback from our customers about the simultaneous multiport
optimization.”
In addition to the simultaneous multiport matching,
Optenni Lab 2.0 includes many additional improvements, such as parallel
optimization methods and microstrip transmission line models.
