A means to approximate partial differential equation (PDE) discretizations (discrete counterparts transferred – with some amount of error – from continuous functions, models, variables and equations) with numerical model equations in order to break down large problems into simpler finite elements that can be solved via numerical methods. Studying a phenomenon with FEM is known as finite element analysis (FEA).

Simulation-Driven Optimization of 5G RF MEMS Filters
The move from 4G to 5G represents an orders of magnitude increases in data rates at frequency bands beyond 3 GHz, as smartphone manufacturers are already being challenged with multiple radios operating in frequency bands close to each other.
