Agilent Advanced Design System (ADS) is an industry standard microwave engineering computer-aided-design (CAD) program. Agilent ADS allows microwave engineers to analyze, design, and simulate active and passive microwave components and systems. In this tutorial, a microstrip transmission line will be designed and analyzed. It should be noted that there are two ways to design/simulate in Agilent ADS; schematic (equation-based) or full-wave (Method-of-Moments). The microstrip line will be designed and simulated using the schematic simulator in this tutorial, while in Tutorial 2 a full-wave simulation will be performed using Agilent ADS’s full-wave simulator, Momentum.
Microstrip Transmission Line Design Values
Operational Frequency: 1 GHz to 5 GHz
Substrate: 2.2 Permittivity and Height of 1.57 mm
Characteristic Impedance: 50 Ohm
Electrical length: 90 degrees at 2.4 GHz.
Simulation Setup
Open up Agilent ADS, the window shown in Fig. 1 will pop-up onto the main screen. Click on Create a new project and give it a name; make sure not to use any spaces and choose the units for the design
