An automated design methodology of RF circuits by using Pareto-optimal fronts of EMsimulated inductors. IEEE Transactions on Computer Aided Design of Integrated Circuits and Systems, 36 (1), 15-26.0278-0070https://hdl.handle.net/11441/73667A new design methodology for radiofrequency circuits is presented that includes electromagnetic (EM) simulation of the inductors into the optimization flow. This is achieved by previously generating the Pareto-optimal front (POF) of the inductors using EM simulation. Inductors are selected from the Pareto front and their S-parameter matrix is included in the circuit netlist that is simulated using an RF simulator. Generating the EM-simulated POF of inductors is computationally expensive, but once generated, it can be used for any circuit design. The methodology is illustrated both for a singleobjective and a multiobjective optimization of a low noise amplifierapplication/pdfengAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Design methodologiesPareto front generationSingle-objective optimizationMulti-objective optimizationRadio frecuency circuitsElectromagnetic simulationAn automated design methodology of RF circuits by using Pareto-optimal fronts of EMsimulated inductorsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttps://doi.org/10.1109/TCAD.2016.2564362
