SINGULA

SINGULA is an easy-to-use 3D full-wave electromagnetic simulator based on CFIE (combined-field integral equation).

SINGULA uses the Method of Moments (MoM) (or Boundary Element Method) coupled with Physical Optics (PO) and the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) method to speed up the matrix-vector multiplication. SINGULA is ideal for high frequency applications like:

• Antennas (linear, microstrip, horn, reflector, slots in waveguide, dielectric resonating, phased array)
• EMC/EMI interactions
• Microwave Circuits
• Microstrip power dividers and filters
• MRI RF coils
• Power bus structures
• Radar Cross Section
• Waveguide filters and transitions
• Scattering from dielectric bodies
• Conductors

SINGULA calculates near and far field results, power and directive gain, radar cross-section, axial ratio, and input impedance, admittance and scattering parameters.

Our powerful parametric solvers allow designers to automatically vary and experiment with geometry, materials and sources – reducing the tedious, repetitive task of fine–tuning multiple design parameters.

SINGULA Features:

• Physical Optics hybridized into MoM to solve problems such as large antenna dishes that plain MoM or FEM cannot handle
• Permeability, permitivity and conductivity data stored in convenient and rapidly accessible tables
• Volume and surface current density
• Near and far field results
• Gain, directivity and axial ratio
• Input impedance, admittance and scattering parameters
• Batch function allows unattended solution of multiple models
• Input power, dielectric and conductivity power loss, radiation power and radiation efficiency
• Sources include: Incident plane wave, delta voltage, line voltage, waveguide, and magnetic frill
• A wide range of graphs & plots (near field, far field, rectangular, Smith Charts, radiation patterns) can be created based on parameters such as H, B, E, D, J, Z, S, Y
• Display rectangular plots of current, fields and input impedance. Display polar plots of power gain, contours of currents and fields. Display 3D surface plots of radiation patterns and display Smith charts of s-parameters
• Industry standard CAD import/export utilities offering time saving convenience for model design and creation
• Powerful parametric feature allows definition of variable parameters to be stepped through providing analysis of multiple "what-if" scenarios and facilitating design optimization
