Introduction To CST

This document provides an introduction to using CST software to simulate electromagnetic structures. CST numerically solves Maxwell's equations to model electric and magnetic fields within complex structures in both the time and frequency domains. The introduction outlines how to create a new project, set up a design, introduce the graphical user interface, and simulate a microstrip transmission line design. It also describes how to extract and evaluate the simulation results.

Introduction to CST

ABSTRACT:

This experiment is an introduction to CST software (Computer Simulation


Technology) which is powerful numerical full electromagnetic simulator. It
simplifies solving complex structures as it solves for Maxwell’s equations
numerically inside the structure. CST gives a complete insight about the E & H
fields behaviors within the structure in either time or frequency domain. It also
enables prediction of designed circuit response before going into the
complicated and costly process of fabrication.

This experiment introduces the following:


• Creating new project
• Setup a new design
• GUI introduction
• Creating a microstrip transmission line (MLIN) design.
• Simulation of the MLIN
• Results extraction and evaluation
