Editorial for the special issue on advances in forward and inverse surrogate modeling for high-frequency design
Abstract
The design of modern‐day high‐frequency devices and circuits, including microwave/RF, antenna and photonic components, historically has relied on full‐wave electromagnetic (EM) simulation tools. Initially used for design verification, EM simulations are nowadays used in the design process itself, for example, for finding optimum values of geometry and/or material parameters of the structures of interest. In a growing number of cases, EM‐driven design closure is mandatory because alternative ways of evaluating the circuit performance (such as through equivalent network modeling) are grossly inaccurate and unable to account for cross‐coupling effects (eg, in densely arranged layouts of compact circuits or antenna arrays), or various environmental components that affect the circuit performance (eg, connectors or housing for antenna structures). Despite being imperative, simulation‐based design poses significant challenges, mostly due to the high computational cost of accurate, high‐fidelity analysis. Repetitive simulations entailed by conventional optimization routines and even more by uncertainty quantification procedures (eg, Monte Carlo analysis) or tolerance‐aware design tasks may generate the costs that are unmanageable or at least impractical. The availability of massive computational resources does not always translate into design speedup due to the need to account for interactions between devices and their surroundings as well as multiphysics (eg, EM‐thermal) effects.
