AWR's iMatch™

Intelligent & Automated Impedance Matching Module 

iMatch is a submodule of iFilter™ that delivers automated impedance matching capabilities to AWR's Microwave Office® software. The iMatch impedance matching wizard quickly and easily takes users through the process of evaluating different matching topologies and selecting the optimal solution based upon certain, user-specified requirements.

iMatch at a Glance

  • Automated and intelligent: supports a variety of matching network classes.
  • Accuracy, flexibility and speed: meets a wide range of impedance matching challenges
  • Integrated: works as a component of AWR's iFilter filter synthesis module
  • Ease of use: continues AWR's signature tradition

Supported iMatch Types

Output and Inter-stage:

  • L/pi/T
  • 3-sec
  • 4-sec
  • TL + Stub
  • Multi TL

Reactance Cancellation:

  • Lumped (series)
  • Lumped (shunt)
  • Stub (shunt)
  • Transmission Line 

In an Inter-stage matching exercise, the reactance cancellation has been accomplished by transmission lines and results in a purely distributed matching structure.
