NI has released V11.01 of the NI AWR Design Environment with enhancements to Analyst 3D finite element method (FEM) EM simulation engine that cuts simulation times by as much as 70 percent over previous versions. The updates in V11.01, which are specific to Analyst, include algorithm reformulations/enhancements to both automatic mesh refinement (AMR) and fast frequency sweeps.

For high-port-count designs (10+ ports), the speed improvements seen with Analyst are the most pronounced. 

In addition to Analyst enhancements, V11.01 offers data set enhancements, layout and user interface improvements, additional geometry simplification rules, and expanded measurements for circuit and system-level designs.

Simulation technology improvements are Visual System Simulator (VSS) , APLAC harmonic balance and AXIEM 3D planar EM
