Hi all,
I am working on RFID system design. currently, I am working on the RF-to-DC converter part. I use cadence for this design but I have a hard time to simulate my system because:
1.It is pretty hard to generate the OOK waveform I want. and
2.It takes a long time to run the whole simulation.
Therefore, I would like to know if there is any better EDA tool for RFID design.
Thank you so much.

| ADS or MWO, but their prices are hilarious high.

The art of simulation is basically in finding a appropriate abstraction level. I'm not particular familar with cadence simulator, but I guess, any tool can be used with an intelligent simulation setup.
I have peviously used Pspice, together with coupled inductor parameters from a 3D FEM tool (FastHenry) for ISO14443 related simulations.

| ADS is a very good tool for RFID design, some good examples also there

| ADS. You can use WLAN examples to construct your own RFID test bench.
