Title: tool for RF PCB simulation
Post by Pavel on Aug 14^th, 2015, 8:51am

Hello,

Did someone experience with simulation of RF PCBs (e.g. GPS).
What EM tool matches best such kind of tasks:

ANSYS Electromagnetics
EMpro (from Agilent)
CST Studio
Sonnet suite
FEKO
etc

Regards

Pavel

Sonnet is pretty good and has a free Lite version (http://www.sonnetsoftware.com/products/lite/). I don't have much experience with the others.
