Antenna Toolbox

Antenna Toolbox™ provides functions and apps for designing, analyzing, and visualizing antenna elements and arrays. You can design standalone antennas and build arrays of antennas using predefined elements with parameterized geometry and material.

The toolbox offers full-wave and hybrid electromagnetic solvers for port, surface, and field analysis, antenna placement studies, and radar cross section (RCS) calculations. You can install the antennas on large platforms such as vehicles or aircraft and analyze the effects of the structure on antenna performance. The toolbox includes AI-driven workflows such as reconstructing 3D radiation patterns using deep learning and enhancing antenna designs with SADEA optimization.

The toolbox lets you export designed antennas for fabrication using CAD and Gerber files. You can also integrate antenna arrays—including measured or third-party simulated data—into RF front ends of wireless systems for designing matching networks and simulating beamforming algorithms. You can use different propagation techniques, such as ray tracing, to visualize coverage and estimate links on arbitrary terrains and in urban scenarios.
