2D Dipole Antenna Array in Ansys HFSS
In this Lab Tutorial the method of creating and analyzing a 2D dipole array in Ansys HFSS is explained.
The tutorial is utilizing the Array Tool in Ansys HFSS that extrapolates the radiation of a single element (post processing). In addition, the generation of the Array Factor plot is demonstrated. The performance of the array is also compared to the single dipole performance.
Learning Outcomes
- Setting up an array using the Antenna Array Setup in Ansys HFSS
