Preface
Computer-aided full-wave electromagnetic (EM) analysis has been used in
microwave engineering for a few decades. Initially, its main application
area was design verification. Today, EM-simulation-driven optimization
and design closure become increasingly important due to the complexity
of microwave structures and increasing demands for accuracy. In many
situations, theoretical models of microwave structures can only be used
to yield the initial designs that need to be further fine-tuned to meet
given performance requirements. In addition, EM-based design is a must
for a growing number of microwave devices such as ultrawideband (UWB)
antennas, dielectric resonator antennas, and substrate-integrated circuits.
For circuits like these, reliable and design-ready theoretical models are
hardlyavailable,sothatdesignimprovementcanbe onlyobtainedthrough
geometry adjustments based on repetitive, time-consuming simulations.
On the other hand, various interactions between microwave devices and
their environment such as feeding structures and housing must be often
taken into account, which is only possible through full-wave EM analysis.
Electromagnetic simulations can be highly accurate, but, at the same
time, they tend to be computationally expensive. Therefore, practical
design optimization methods have to be computationally efficient, so that
the number of CPU-intensive high-fidelity EM simulations is reduced
as much as possible during the design process. For the same reasons,
techniquesforcreatingfastandyetaccuratemodelsofmicrowavestructures
become crucially important. In this edited book, we strive to review the
state of the art of simulation-driven microwave design optimization and
modeling. A group of international experts specializing in various aspects
of microwave computer-aided design, will summarize and review a wide
range of latest developments and real-world applications. Topics include
conventionaland surrogate-baseddesignoptimizationtechniques, methods
exploiting adjoint sensitivity, simulation-based tuning, space mapping, as
well as various modeling methodologies, among others, artificial neural
networks and kriging. Applications and case studies include microwave
filters, antennas, substrate integrated structures, as well as various active
