New features and changes introduced in this version are:

New Option for Interpreting the Simulink Signal as the Incident Power Wave

The Input Port block now provides the option to interpret the input Simulink signal as the incident power wave. This is the most common RF modeling interpretation. To select this option, use the new Treat Simulink signal as parameter.

Enhanced Dielectric Loss Model in Three Transmission Line Blocks

The following blocks now provide a more realistic model for dielectric loss:

To specify dielectric loss, you use a new parameter, Loss tangent. This parameter replaces the Conductivity in dielectric parameter.

Compatibility Considerations

Your existing models that include blocks with a nonzero value for the Conductivity in dielectric parameter no longer model dielectric loss. Instead, the models issue a warning message and use the default value of zero for the Loss tangent parameter when you run the model.
