Get ready for the future of antenna design. AN-SOF 8.50 brings enhanced features like Transmission Line models, extended power budget, and improved far-field calculation. Stay tuned for the release!
This quick overview document provides a concise introduction to the capabilities of AN-SOF, designed to revolutionize the way you approach antenna design.
AN-SOF has released its latest version, 8.20, which brings significant enhancements to improve the software's accessibility and performance.
New Plots tab where we can quickly see the input impedance, VSWR, gain, Front-to-Rear, and Front-to-Back ratios as a function of frequency, with various visualization controls (grids, points, markers, etc.).
This version of AN-SOF has new functions and options: ARRL-style scale in polar plots. Radiation pattern slices in decibels can be displayed...
New version of Antenna Simulation Software: AN-SOF 7.8.
Explore the new AN-SOF User Guide >, where you will find detailed information about its many features, as well as step-by-step examples and tips to help you quickly move forward with your antenna modeling projects.
New version of Antenna Simulation Software: AN-SOF 7.50.
See how the radiation pattern changes with frequency in AN-3D Pattern. The near field heatmap and current distribution can also be viewed dynamically by changing the operating frequency.
AN-SOF 7.10 is now available for download! Access the input impedance and VSWR easily by going to the Main menu > Results. This avoids selecting the segment where the source is located to access the input impedance.
AN-SOF 7.0 is Here! Run bulk simulations and process multiple input files with just one click. We have chosen the NEC format for the input files as it is a standard adopted by many users. Forget about running the simulations one by one, run them all at once.
New Release :: AN-SOF 6.40 :: Tabular input of linear wires as well as sources and loads. List of recently open projects in the File menu. Zoom in and out by rotating the mouse wheel.
New Release :: AN-SOF 6.20 :: Radiation patterns plotted in AN-Polar can now be exported as *.ant files. The *.ant format can then be imported into the Radio Mobile propagation software. Exportation of linear wires in DXF format has been added.
