Abstract :
In this work we present a microwaves circuit electromagnetic simulator. It is fundamentally based on the 3D self-consistent numerical solution of the Maxwell´s equations and the macroscopic conservation equations derived from the transport equation of Boltzmann. It can include linear electrical elements. As an illustration, it is applied to the simulation of a microstrip transmission line and the Distributed IMPact ionisation and Avalanche and Transit Time (DIMPATT) diode.
