Antenna Magus Design:
Design antennas for given specifications
Antenna Magus includes a huge database of antennas that can be designed for specific objectives like gain, bandwidth and beamwidth. Each antenna is thoroughly researched and design algorithms undergo various tests and validation routines to confirm that they work properly for a wide range of objective combinations. Design algorithms take only a few seconds to create working antenna models with physical parameters.
During the implementation of the design process in Antenna Magus it was observed that many published antenna papers make undisclosed assumptions or give insufficient information to recreate and implement the reported results and algorithms. Thus for some antennas, the design routines and algorithms had to be derived from basic antenna principles and tested to give trustworthy designs.
When designing an antenna by hand it is easy to make careless mistakes while writing and keying in algorithms. Finding and resolving simple mistakes like a sign error or forgetting to include a multiplication factor could waste hours of valuable time. Each design in Antenna Magus has been validated for a wide range of design scenarios, comparing thousands of 3D-EM simulation results to design objectives. This has taken care of annoying finger trouble and ensures that all designs will give performance that is very close to the specific objectives.
Magus design is a great starting point for any design optimisation or parameter study in a 3D-EM analysis tool and ensures that designing for performance objectives that are not supported in Antenna Magus is easy!
