This application note presents WIPL‑D simulations of two electrically large scenarios. The first scenario encompassed a monopole antenna mounted on the model of the Airbus A320 (simulated at 833 MHz). The second scenario encompassed three monopole antennas mounted in three different positions on the…

This paper presents the procedure for the design of splash plate reflector antenna. It contains theoretical consideration and foundation, as well as procedure for design in the WIPL-D software suite. Splash plate reflector antenna consists of two parts: feeding cylindrical…
Cassegrain Antennas with Diameters Up to 200 λ
Very large Cassegrain antennas are usually simulated using specialized asymptotic methods. However, WIPL‑D Pro simulates antennas of this type using very accurate and very fast Method-of-Moments with higher order basis functions which results in very high numerical efficiency. Due to…
Cassegrain Antenna – General Info
The application note contains basic information about this type of reflector antennas. The WIPL-D MoM implementation is particularly well suited for simulation of reflectors, which is elaborated in details (quadrilateral elements of 2 lambda by 2 lambda, up to the…
Dielectrically Loaded Circular Horn Antenna
Two models of circular horn antenna were simulated using the WIPL-D software. Special attention is devoted to the dielectrically loaded horn antenna. The influence of the dielectric loading is highlighted and it is the most noticeable in radiation back lobe…
