Chapter 11 Parameter Sweep and Optimization Tutorial<br />

Setting Up a Parameter Sweep<br />

1 Select Analysis ⇒ Setup from the project editor’s main menu.<br />

The Analysis Setup dialog box appears on your display.<br />

2 Select Parameter Sweep from the Analysis Control drop list.<br />

This selects a parameter sweep as the type of analysis. The dialog box’s<br />

appearance changes to accommodate the input needed for a parameter sweep.<br />

Analysis Control<br />

drop list<br />

3 Click on the Add Button in the Analysis Control section of the dialog box.<br />

The Parameter Sweep Entry dialog box appears. This dialog box allows you to add<br />

a parameter sweep.<br />

The first step is to specify the analysis frequencies you wish to use for the parameter<br />

sweep. For this example, you wish to perform an ABS sweep from 2.0 GHZ<br />

to 10.0 GHz. Since Adaptive Sweep (ABS) is the default sweep type, you do not<br />

need to take any action to select it.<br />

4 Enter 2.0 in the Start text entry box in the Frequency Specification section of<br />

the Parameter Sweep Entry dialog box.<br />

This is the starting frequency.<br />

5 Enter 10.0 in the Stop text entry box.<br />

This is the highest frequency. This defines a band of 2 GHz to 10 GHz for the<br />

adaptive sweep.<br />

Next, you will select the variables you wish to sweep.<br />
