Antenna software - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

I am also very interested in purchasing a software (depending on quality of product and price) but I will need to obtain softcopy of the typographical maps for Fiji loaded into the database.

Alternatively, I need access to the services that can carry out the coverage plots of locations of our Ground Station UHF Receivers within the Fiji Islands. If anyone can provide these services then please advise me on peterod@afl.com.fj.

Thanks.

Hi,

personnaly, I have received an eval of MICROSTRIPES.
after a quick simulation, that's pretty fast and I am very satisfied with results.

I guess their TLM approach is relatively similar, but the software is more stable (does not share FDTD's dispersion error issue) and cell meshing/lumping can be more brutal without causing errors .

hope this helps
