Geometry export into SAT files is now facilitated for QW-V2D projects.

SAT Filter module has been updated for consistency with new ACIS libraries.

DXF Converter now correctly interprets *.dxf files containing lines with non-zero width, in DXF convention.

Starting with version 7.5, all magnitude curves can be displayed in linear, quadratic, or logarithmic scale. Phase curves are displayed in linear scale, as in previous software versions. A change to other than linear scale is forbidden for standing wave ratio and group delay curves.

A complete list of scaling options and units for various curves is given in Appendix S 5.9. of QW-Simulator reference guide.

Radiation patterns calculation has been enabled in version 7.5 of QW-AccelSim. This brings up functionality of this hardware-accelerated option closer to the basic QW-3D package.

Improvements in export and import of CAD files

 

Consistency between the number of UDO parameters in project files and corresponding UDO files is now verified.

Syntax checking of UDO calls

 

Starting with version 7.5, user-defined excitation waveforms can be scaled in amplitude and shifted in time by the software. The "Amplitude" and "Delay" settings of I/O Ports Parameters dialogue are now relevant and stored for waveforms of the "defined by the user text file". QW-Simulator shifts the excitation time scale by the delay and multiplies each excitation value by the amplitude.

Scaling of user-defined excitation

 

In earlier versions of the software, double-clicking on *.ta3 was opening QW-Simulator and loading the file. Now additionally the simulation is also started.

A new version of QW-OptimiserPlus brings better stability and faster convergence.

Most of the changes made to the VF Modeller have been to consolidate the parameterization facilities. Changes have also been made to support new features of QuickWave.
