WRDguide - RF/Microwave Transmission Line Design Software
​Where Synthesis enables Analysis™

Software Product: WRDguide - Double or Single Ridge Waveguide transmission line.

Atlanta RF Software offers RF/microwave CAE software product: WRDguide, which performs dimensional synthesis and analysis of Double Ridge and Single Ridge Waveguide, and includes the following product features:

1. Synthesis of physical dimensions from User-selected WRD Impedance:
   1. Power-Voltage Impedance: Z(P,V).
   2. Voltage-Current Impedance: Z(V,I).
   3. Power-Current Impedance: Z(P,I). . . . . . perhaps the best choice!
2. Analysis of Impedances from known ridge waveguide dimensions.
3. Sensitivity Analysis of Waveguide Impedance to:
   1. Waveguide Width: A.
   2. Waveguide Height: B.
   3. Ridge Gap: D.
   4. Ridge Width: S.
4. Response profile versus Frequency of:
   1. WRD Impedance: Z(P,V), Z(V,I) and Z(P,I) versus Frequency.
   2. Guide wavelength versus Frequency.
   3. Conductor losses versus Frequency (Resistivity & Surface Roughness).
   4. Unloaded Q (Qu) versus Frequency.
5. Percent of RF power inside the ridge's Gap: D.
6. Default values for each User-entered input data.
7. Output Data stored on your hard drive for graphical plots.

​Software product: WRDguide can readily synthesize & analyze all standard ridge waveguide cross-sections, plus allow the User to develop new and custom WRD cross-sections that operate across broader operating frequency ranges. WRDguide is useful when developing Double Ridge Waveguide products, like: Magic Tees; Transitions to coax/microstrip/stripline; Impedance-matching circuits, and many other WRD applications.
