Abstract

This paper introduces some of the latest extensions and improvements to the field computation package FEKO: Support for aperture modeling in the planar multilayer Green´s function using magnetic surface currents, the integration of SPICE subcircuits in combination with electromagnetic models, accurate shielding computations in the modeling of geometrically thin lossy layers and acceleration by GPUs. These topics are presented and discussed along with validation and application examples.
