Radio Wires + Ansys Startup Program | Customer Success Story

Introduction to Radio Wires and the Multi-Tap Transmission Line

Radio Wires is an early-stage startup focused on developing next-generation data networks for intelligent machines. At the core of its innovative technology is the Multi-Tap Transmission Line, which leverages rigid-flex printed circuit boards (PCBs) and thin-film resistors to deliver optimized transmission capabilities.

Still in the pre-funding phase, Radio Wires is in the process of building prototypes and engaging with early adopters, partners, and investors to bring its cutting-edge solutions to the market.

At-A-Glance

Technology Used

  • Electromagnetics Startup Bundle

Challenge

  • Designing and testing the Multi-Tap Transmission Line prototype without the ability to simulate its electrical behavior, risking costly iterations due to potential prototype failures.

Outcomes

  • Reduced prototype iterations
  • Optimized transmission line design
  • Improved investor appeal
  • Foundation for scalability

Without electromagnetic simulation tools, there’d be very little confidence that this prototype would work… Ansys provided us with the confidence that what we’re thinking is feasible and doable in the real world.

The Problem

In the early stages of developing its technology, Radio Wires faced significant challenges in designing and testing the Multi-Tap Transmission Line. Without the ability to confidently simulate the electrical behavior of its circuits, Radio Wires risked creating a prototype that could fail, requiring multiple costly iterations of PCB designs. Theoretical designs alone were insufficient, and the need for precise simulations to validate Radio Wires’ innovations became clear.

The Solution

Radio Wires turned to SimuTech Group and, through the Ansys Startup Program, gained access to Ansys simulation software to overcome its challenges. With Ansys’ powerful electromagnetic simulation tools, Radio Wires could confidently design and prototype its transmission line without the fear of failure. The software allowed it to simulate real-world conditions and ensure that the designs would function as intended. By using Ansys simulation software, Radio Wires was able to test and validate its prototype, significantly reducing the risk and cost associated with multiple design iterations.

The Benefits

By utilizing the Ansys Startup Program and Ansys simulation tools, Radio Wires gained the confidence to proceed with its prototype development. The software provided crucial insights that helped optimize its transmission line design and ensure feasibility. As a result, Radio Wires can now present its technology to potential investors and partners with greater certainty about its viability. Moreover, as the company scales, it plans to automate its designs and simulations further, utilizing Ansys’ capabilities to support this growth.
