Implementation of Remote and Self-Guided Practical Exercises of Electromagnetic Simulation

Abstract:

A set of laboratory exercises has been designed to enable students to learn the design of RF circuits with microstrip technology using high-frequency design software for circuit and electromagnetic simulation. Also the use of system simulator for RF applications has been intoduced in several subjects. The goal of this work is to facilitate remote access of students to this software and measure the advantages it gives to the students work. Then, it has been developed a secured server for the students, that allows them to use the software's educational licenses from their personal computers. This enables the students to work on their designs at home and the teachers to track and evaluate the time and effort of the students through the use of these licenses. Also, some of these laboratory exercises has been adapted to be developed independently by the student by using the software through remote access and so we can optimize resources of the department and provide more flexibility to the students.
