Recent advances in computational electromagnetic tools made antenna design possible along with integration of antennas on various ground, sea and air platforms. Full wave techniques such as Method of Moments (MoM), Multilevel Fast Multipole Method (MLFMM) along with asymptotic techniques such as Physical Optics (PO), Geometrical Optics (GO) and Uniform Theory of Diffraction (UTD) will be reviewed. Application of these and hybrid numerical techniques for antenna designs, antenna-platform interaction studies, EMI/EMC, bioelectromagentics and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system design. For many practical applications, sometimes it is necessary to study the electromagnetic behavior on a specific structure over a broad frequency band, and therefore it is important to have some benchmark data on computational resources needed for some commonly used numerical techniques. During this workshop, various antenna design applications will be examined. Also a full-size air, ground and sea platforms are considered and the frequency limit is pushed at different bands using several numerical techniques. A benchmark study of computational resources required by available computational tools for electrically large platforms will be presented.
WHAT ATTENDEES WILL LEARN
The main goal of this workshop is to introduce state-of-the-art computational tools for antenna design. An overview will be given of various numerical techniques available for antenna design in the commercially available EM modelling tool - FEKO. Various antenna design applications using FEKO will be examined.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
- Antenna Designers
- Antenna System Engineers
- RFID Designers
- Program Managers for Antenna System Development
WHEN
October 18th, 2010 (8:00 to 12:00). Before the 2010 Antenna Systems Conference
