      In this video, the simulation of the modified design in HFSS 3D Layout reveals improved results. Insertion Loss and Return Loss reports are generated for the modified design. When compared to the initial design, it’s found that the coupling between the offending signal and antenna is reduced significantly in the modified board. The return loss report predicts good results so despite making changes to the geometry, the PCB’s intended functionality and operation remain largely unaffected. The second mitigation scheme of settling on the slower data rate over the fast data rate is also shown.
