3D EM Simulation Environment for Development, Testing, and Functioning of Internet of Things
2020
The exponential growth of IoT (Internet of Things) imposes increased needs for understanding and exploitation of EM phenomena. Consequently, there are growing demands for more flexible, accurate, and efficient 3D EM simulation, easy accessible to many engineers, many of them lacking deep knowledge of applied electromagnetics. To meet such needs it is necessary to adjust existing tools to create friendly 3D simulation environment, not only for development and testing of IoT, but even for inclusion of these tools into functioning of IoT. In this paper we propose the concept/structure of such environment. For the base of such environment we propose WIPL-D commercial general-purpose 3D EM solver WIPL-D Pro and its CAD variant-WIPL-D Pro CAD. In addition we added libraries of EM models of a) electrical components (e.g. antennas), b) environmental elements (e.g. moving platforms, indoor/outdoor objects, human phantoms), and c) templates that combines electrical components and environmental elements into IoT scenarios. Special tools/procedures are included/developed to enable easy creation of new libraries’ components and their composition into complex scenarios, as well as for effective processing of EM field data obtained by simulation. The effectiveness of such 3D EM simulation environment will be shown on a number of practical examples.
