Electromagnetic compatibility
To respect the time-to-market requirements and to comply with the product's specifications, the virtual prototyping of EMC phenomena has nowadays to be performed from the early design stages by means of accurate, robust and well-adapted simulation tools, which must interact with each other to exploit their respective strengths and advantages.
Therefore, the CEDRAT solution for EMC is oriented towards the integration and the dialog between three tools: Flux, InCa3D and Portunus.
