ANALYSIS OF THE FINITE ELEMENT RADIATION MODEL CODE FOR ANTENNA MODELING

摘要

The Finite Element Radiation Model (FERM) code is applied to examine radiation patterns and input impedance of various antenna con- figurations on complex helicopters. This paper addresses the strengths and weaknesses of the FERM code when applied in antenna analysis and is compared with other national codes, such as the Numerical Electromagnetics Code (NEC). In addition, guidelines are outlined for various applications of the code. [Vol. 11, No. 2 (1996), pp 4-13]
