Need specialist / expert advice on Antenna & Circuit Co- - RF Cafe Forums

RF Cafe Forums closed its virtual doors in late 2012 mainly due to other social media platforms dominating public commenting venues. RF Cafe Forums began sometime around August of 2003 and was quite well-attended for many years. By 2012, Facebook and Twitter were overwhelmingly dominating online personal interaction, and RF Cafe Forums activity dropped off precipitously. Regardless, there are still lots of great posts in the archive that ware worth looking at. Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

Sub: Need specialist / expert advice on Antenna & Circuit Co-Simulation using Agilent ADS

Is it possible to co-simulate in Agilent ADS

Between HB (Nonlinear Circuit schematic) with Momentum (Antenna design).

Basically I want to vary the Power Levels dynamically for my antenna input &

monitor the radiation patterns simultaneously.

If not, is there any other tool does this job!!!

Thanx,

Hi!

Your question implies a belief that the antenna's radiation patttern varies with power. This is not normally the case, which is why such simulations are usually done separately - both because they can be, and because there's a lot less work involved with splitting a system up and analyzing each piece.

Good Luck!

It's the Fields not he radiation pattern...

I mean I should be able to see E & H fields when I cosimulate with circuit engine...

Is it possible???
