Third-Party Integration with Optenni Lab
Optenni Lab is a matching circuit generation and antenna analysis software tool. It includes automatic impedance matching tools and antenna bandwidth estimation.
A macro is provided that creates a link between CADFEKO and Optenni Lab.
On the Home tab, in the Scripting group, click the Application macro icon. From the drop-down list, click the Optenni Lab: Port matching icon.
A Touchstone file containing the S-parameters for the system is generated by Feko and sent to Optenni Lab. A matching network can be created for each of the ports in the Touchstone file. These matching networks are then sent back to CADFEKO to be included in the model.
- Update the model that is currently open and generate all of the required data for Optenni Lab to generate matching networks. A resulting model will be generated where all of the matched ports are reconnected through the matching networks.
- Use a Touchstone file that has previously been generated by the currently open model and use Optenni Lab to generate matching networks. A resulting model will be generated where all of the matched ports are reconnected through the matching networks.
- Specify an independent Touchstone file that is not associated with the open model. A matching network will be generated, but will not be connected to any ports in the model.
