Wcalc is a transmission line analysis and synthesis tool. Several
|
||
|
|
structures including air core solenoid inductors, coaxial cable,
|
||
|
|
single and coupled microstrip, stripline, and metal-insulator-
|
||
|
|
semiconductor microstrip are included.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Wcalc can analyze the electrical parameters for a given physical
|
||
|
|
description of the structure or synthesize the required dimensions
|
||
|
|
to meet certain desired electrical characteristics.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Wcalc provides several different frontends for accessing the numeric
|
||
|
|
engine. Currently, there is a GTK based standalone graphical
|
||
|
|
user interface, a common gateway interface (CGI) for web access,
|
||
|
|
Scilab, Octave, and Matlab interfaces for maximum flexibility within
|
||
|
|
a scientific programming environment, and a standard input/output
|
||
|
|
(stdio) interface which allows a simple interface to other 3rd
|
||
|
|
party tools which can communicate via a pipe.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The different frontends are installed as different packages for
|
||
|
|
flexibility in deployment.
