Feko 2023.1.2 Release Notes
The most notable improvements to Feko are listed by component.
CADFEKO
Resolved Issues
- Resolved a regression that prevented CADFEKO_BATCH version 2023.1.1 from successfully updating models with parameter changes. The problem could be observed as warnings in optimisation output that the execution of CADFEKO_BATCH failed. This regression had severe impact on optimisation workflows, causing OPTFEKO to terminate due to errors.
- Fixed an intermittent hang triggered by running a Lua script from CADFEKO using a command line argument and running the script in non-interactive mode. This mechanism is used extensively when doing optimisations through HyperStudy, where this hang was prevalent.
- Resolved an issue where importing a .fek file with transformed parts did not transform all triangles.
- Resolved various meshing-related issues by updating the new meshing library to the latest version. This version resolves problems when meshing imported geometry, specifically with overlapping triangles created at the ends of slanted T-junctions and resilience against invalid meshes when vertices are very close together. There is improvements with the handling of thin metallic faces on dielectric boundaries to avoid collapsed triangles and small gaps, especially on symmetry boundaries. The remeshing of wire model meshes has also been improved.
- Corrected an error where CADFEKO Lua scripts referencing string names of entities may have interpreted the strings as integer numbers resulting in index errors or operations on the incorrect entity.
- When performing a series of of geometry operations, undo/redo operation and toggling automatic meshing, a potential crash is now avoided.
- Resolved a crash that could occur when rotating the 3D view with the selection type set to edge selection.
Solver
Resolved Issue
- A change made to the faceted UTD method in the Feko 2023.1.1 hotfix update caused poor performance and inaccurate results in some cases. This change has been reverted as part of this hotfix. The intended improvements will be reimplemented in a better way for a future release.
WinProp 2023.1.2 Release Notes
The most notable extensions and improvements to WinProp are listed by component.
Application Programming Interface
Resolved Issue
- Resolved an issue where the path loss was incorrectly calculated using the WinProp API.

Altair Simulation-driven design changed product development forever, enabling engineers to reduce design iterations and prototype testing. Increasing scientific computing power expanded the opportunity to apply analysis, making large design studies possible within the timing constraints of a program. Now engineering adoption of AI is transforming product development again. The combination of physics-based simulation-driven design with machine learning, leveraging the latest in high-performance computing, enables teams to explore more and identify high-potential designs - while rejecting low-potential concepts - even earlier in development cycles.
Fekois a powerful and comprehensive 3D simulation package intended for the analysis of a wide range of electromagnetic radiation and scattering problems. Applications include antenna design, antenna placement, microstrip antennas and circuits, dielectric media, scattering analysis, electromagnetic compatibility studies including cable harness modelling and many more.
WinPropis the most complete suite of tools in the domain of wireless propagation and radio network planning. With applications ranging from satellite to terrestrial, from rural via urban to indoor radio links, WinProp's innovative wave propagation models combine accuracy with short computation times.
newFASANTcomplements Altair's high frequency electromagnetic software tool (Altair Feko) for general 3D EM field calculations, including, among others, special design tools tailored for specific applications like complex radomes including FSS, automated design of reflectarrays and ultra-conformed reflector antennas, analysis of Doppler effects, ultrasound systems including automotive or complex RCS, and antenna placement problems. Advanced solver technologies like the MoM combined with the characteristic basis functions (CBFS), PO/GO/PTD, GTD/PO and MLFMM parallelised through MPI/OpenMP, being some of them especially efficient for the analysis of electrically very large problems.
