PRODUCT DETAILS
HOBBIES provides computational methodologies to overcome the limitations inherent in MoM by using a unique advanced out-of-core parallel solver. HOBBIES brings to the EM engineer’s desktop computing solutions based on an out-of-core processing kernel and parallel solving capability. Benchmark tests have proven our software to out perform other commercial MoM solvers. In this way one can go beyond the limitations of RAM for solving MoM problems. It is important to note that since the software is integrated with the hardware the penalty of using an out-of-core solver over an in-core one with large RAM to be approximately ONLY 20% slower than the latter. Thus providing numerically accurate results within a reasonable time frame makes HOBBIES unique in the area of EM solvers.

ANTENNA DESIGN
HOBBIES can be used to design from single antennas to large antenna arrays. A complete set of tools is provided including an optimizer to design/optimize the antennas.

ANTENNA PLACEMENT
Simulation of antennas mounted on large vehicles can be performed using HOBBIES. The MoM module of HOBBIES can be used for these kind of applications.

EMI/EMC ANALYSIS
Radiation and coupling of antennas mounted in-situ on airplanes, ships, tanks and other platforms can be simulated for optimum antenna placement to minimize interference or compatibility.

SCATTERING ANALYSIS
Scattering analysis of metallic and dielectric large electrical size objects can be simulated in both monostatic and bistatic modes.

OTHER APPLICATIONS
Other applications where HOBBIES can also be used are frequency selective surfaces (FSS), antenna with magnetic materials as ferrites or microstip circuits.
