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.

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 mi‐
25 nor fixes incorporated. The GUI has been ported from the GIMP toolkit
26 (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.
