Setting a Goal Value

A goal is the value you want a solution quantity to reach during an optimization analysis. It can be a real value or a complex value. If the solution quantity is a complex calculation, the goal value must be complex. You can type the goal value in the Goal text box. Alternatively, you can use the Edit Goal/Value Weight dialog box to specify the goal value as a single value, a mathematical expression, or a value dependent on a variable such as frequency.
