End-to-End Simulation of a Folded Waveguide Traveling Wave Tube Using Impedance Matrices and Compass

Compass [1] is a new design environment for rapid prototyping. It marries rapid geometry modeling, using SolidWorks, with geometry based simulation software. Compass packages any command line based simulation software into a Compass module. Each module interacts with other modules and is reusable in other design flows.
