NAME

6       QucsTranscalc - A transmission line calculator.

SYNOPSIS

9       qucstrans [OPTION] ...
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Qucs  is  an  integrated  circuit simulator which means you are able to
13       setup a circuit with a graphical user interface (GUI) and simulate  the
14       large-signal,  small-signal  and noise behaviour of the circuit.  After
15       that simulation has finished you can view the simulation results  on  a
16       presentation page or window.
17
18       The  software  aims  to  support all kinds of circuit simulation types,
19       e.g. DC, AC, S-parameter, harmonic balance  analysis,  noise  analysis,
20       etc.
21
22       QucsTranscalc is the transmission line tool used by Qucs.  The applica‐
23       tion was somewhat inspired by transcalc by Claudio  Girardi  and  Gopal
24       Narayanan.   It  is  based  on transcalc's latest CVS version with some
25       minor fixes incorporated.  The GUI has been ported from the GIMP  tool‐
26       kit (GTK) to Qt.
27
28       It is an analysis and synthesis tool for calculating the electrical and
29       physical properties of different kinds of RF and microwave transmission
30       lines.
31
32       For  each  type  of transmission line, using dialog boxes, the user can
33       enter values for the various parameters, and either calculate its elec‐
34       trical  properties, or use the given electrical requirements to synthe‐
35       size physical parameters of the required transmission line.
36
37       Available transmission lines are:  Microstrip,  Rectangular  Waveguide,
38       Coaxial Line, Coplanar and Coupled Microstrips.
