Abstract: |
This paper presents the results of a research project
aimed at studying the behavior of the radiation pattern of a patch
array antenna through computer simulations. In this sense, is
present the basic guidelines for design, implementation and
preliminary simulation of different antenna prototypes through an
algorithm simulator developed in MATLAB ® environment.
Comparative studies of the simulation values are performed with
the software LVDAM-ANT® which relate simulation data with
actual experimental values. The results obtained demonstrate the
efficiency of the simulation algorithm developed to underpin the
study presented in this paper.
Keywords— Microstrip patch array, radiation pattern,
electromagnetic field, simulator GUI.
