Abstract :
In this paper a new approach to the design of passive coaxial components, based on finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) electromagnetic (EM) analysis in an optimization loop is presented. A specialized coaxial EM solver has been modified for combined use with three optimization methods. Algorithms proved to be accurate and effective producing significantly improved circuits designs in a reasonable computing time. Practical examples illustrate advantages of the present approach
