Abstract :
A new technique for design centering of microwave circuits is introduced. This technique exploits the space-mapping interpolating surrogate (SMIS) with a modified ellipsoidal technique. The design centering solution for microwave circuits is obtained with a small number of fine model evaluations and, hence, the number of electromagnetic simulations is greatly reduced. Practical and demonstrative examples are included to show the efficiency of the new technique
