Efficient Modeling of Towel Bar Antennas Using Model of Distributed Loading along Wires
Keywords:
Antenna modeling, dielectric standoff, distributed loading, WIPL-D ProAbstract
This paper presents an efficient technique to determine equivalents of towel bar antenna dielectric standoffs in the form of wires with distributed loadings using WIPL-D Pro (3-D EM solver) software. Starting from the product, we will determine its basic characteristics and propose simplifications in modeling for further analysis. Benefits of this technique are simplicity of modeling and fast, but still accurate, simulations.
