Navigating the Numerical Landscape: Choosing the Right Antenna Simulation Method
In this article, we provide an overview of various numerical methods used in Computational Electromagnetics (CEM), with a special focus on antenna simulation methods such as FDTD, FEM, MoM, CMoM, FMM, MLFMM, FVTD, GO, GTD, UTD, PO, PTD, and DDM.
AN-SOF Implements James R. Wait Theory for Ground Losses of LF/MF Radio Masts
AN-SOF introduces an innovative method based on James R. Wait theory to accurately compute ground losses, improving monopole antenna design. Explore the validated model for LF/MF radio masts.
Overcoming 7 Limitations in Antenna Design: Introducing AN-SOF's Conformal Method of Moments
Introducing AN-SOF’s Conformal Method of Moments, an advanced approach to wire antenna design. By overcoming several limitations of traditional techniques, this method enables accurate modeling and analysis of antennas with complex geometries.
A Transmission Line
Two-wire transmission lines can be modeled explicitly in AN-SOF. In this example, the line will have a single wire but there will be a ground plane below it, so we have the mirror image of the wire as the return of the line.
An RLC Circuit
The ability of AN-SOF to simulate at extremely low frequencies can be demonstrated with a model of an RLC circuit that will resonate at only 800 Hz, so the wavelength is 375 km!
