CST DESIGN STUDIO™ (CST DS) has been selected by the editors of MW&RF as one of the "Top products of 2002" for its significance to the high frequency industry.

CST DESIGN STUDIO™ radically speeds up the analysis and optimisation of complex or highly resonating structures.

How does it work? CST DESIGN STUDIO™ enables the breaking down of complex systems into smaller components, each described by its S-matrix. All the matrices are then combined in CST DESIGN STUDIO™, where the complete system's behaviour is calculated within a few seconds.

The sub-components can then be individually analysed by the simulator best suited to the particular application. Naturally the insertion of measured components or analytical models (e.g. transmission lines) is also possible. Changing the parameters of analytical models does not require any electromagnetic analysis, consequently the response is obtained almost instantaneously. 

CST DESIGN STUDIO™'s open architecture enables the user to combine results from the best source available (simulation tool, analytical model, measurement results) in one user-friendly environment.

"Design Studio is a must have for today’s electrical design engineer. Its interface with Microwave Studio is flawless and compliments it very well.  A large diversity of waveguide structures is easily realized by defining a few parameters.  In addition, the powerful Graphical User Interface allows S-parameter models to be effortlessly assembled, simulated and optimized with other passive structures."
