patchMicrostripElliptical
Description
The patchMicrostripElliptical
object creates a probe-fed
elliptical microstrip patch antenna. The default patch is centered at the origin. The
ellipse is chosen for a resonance frequency of around 5.45 GHz. Elliptical microstrip
patch antennas are used in high-performance applications such as spacecraft, aircraft,
missiles, and satellites. Elliptical microstrip patch antennas with optimum dimensions
act as circularly polarized wave radiators.
You can perform full-wave EM solver based analysis on the regular
patchMicrostripElliptical
antenna or you can create a
patchMicrostripElliptical
type AIAntenna
and
explore the design space to tune the antenna for your application using AI-based
analysis.
Creation
Description
creates a probe-fed elliptical microstrip patch antenna operating at 5.45
GHz.ant
= patchMicrostripElliptical
sets additional Properties using
one or more name-value arguments. ant
= patchMicrostripElliptical(Name=Value)Name
is the property
name and Value
is the corresponding value. You can
specify several name-value arguments in any order as
Name1=Value1
, ...
,
NameN=ValueN
. Properties that you do not specify
retain their default values.
For example, ant =
patchMicrostripElliptical(MajorAxis=0.0878)
creates an
elliptical microstrip patch antenna with a major axis of 0.0878
meters.
You can also create a
patchMicrostripElliptical
antenna resonating at a desired frequency using thedesign
function.You can also create a
patchMicrostripElliptical
antenna from a microstrip patch typeAIAntenna
object using theexportAntenna
function.A
patchMicrostripElliptical
typeAIAntenna
has some common tunable properties with a regularpatchMicrostripElliptical
antenna for AI-based analysis. Other properties of the regularpatchMicrostripElliptical
antenna are retained as read-only in itsAIAntenna
equivalent. To find the upper and lower bounds of the tunable properties, usetunableRanges
