Abstract

This article describes a spreadsheet tool for the design of major antenna elements and antenna arrays. The antenna elements included are the dipole, circular loop, long wire, rectangular and circular patch antenna. Linear, circular, planar, and cylindrical array types can also be simulated. It is also possible to study an antenna behavior for given parameters, plot its patterns, and estimate its directivity and half‐power beam width. These parameters are inputted or changed through worksheet cells, or through simple dialog boxes. This tool is useful for educational purposes as it enables junior students to put hands on antenna design and simulation. Β© 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Comput Appl Eng Educ 19: 209–215, 2011

This paper describes a modelling strategy and a software tool for simulating the dynamical behaviour of an active antenna array. The array consists of active radiating elements placed in a chain, i.e. a collinear array arrangement. To assist modelling of the active antenna array a macro model has be
