API Program for Invoking HFSS Simulation Software

Resource Overview

Self-developed MATLAB API for interfacing with HFSS simulation software, featuring model creation, simulation setup, and post-processing capabilities

Detailed Documentation

This custom MATLAB program provides an API interface to control HFSS simulation software. The API implements key functionalities including 3D model creation, simulation parameter configuration, and post-processing data extraction through COM automation. The program enables direct control of HFSS from MATLAB environment, allowing users to streamline electromagnetic simulation workflows with script-based automation. Core functions utilize MATLAB's actxserver() to establish COM connection and implement method calls for project manipulation, analysis setup, and result retrieval. The modular architecture supports secondary development for custom simulation requirements, with wrapper functions handling HFSS object model interactions. The intuitive function design with comprehensive error handling makes it accessible for beginners while maintaining robustness for advanced applications.
