import wcalc-0.9
Wcalc is a transmission line analysis and synthesis tool. Several structures including air core solenoid inductors, coaxial cable, single and coupled microstrip, stripline, and metal-insulator- semiconductor microstrip are included. Wcalc can analyze the electrical parameters for a given physical description of the structure or synthesize the required dimensions to meet certain desired electrical characteristics. Wcalc provides several different frontends for accessing the numeric engine. Currently, there is a GTK based standalone graphical user interface, a common gateway interface (CGI) for web access, Scilab, Octave, and Matlab interfaces for maximum flexibility within a scientific programming environment, and a standard input/output (stdio) interface which allows a simple interface to other 3rd party tools which can communicate via a pipe. The different frontends are installed as different packages for flexibility in deployment.
