Dipole in Front of a Cube

Calculate the radiation pattern for a half-wavelength dipole in front of a cuboid. View the effect of the cuboid on the radiation pattern.

The far field results are compared for the following cuboid configurations:
  1. Perfect electric conductor (PEC) cuboid
  2. Lossy metallic cuboid
  3. Dielectric cuboid

Tip: Each model uses its predecessor as a starting point. Create the models in their presentation order. Save each model to a new location to keep them.
Tip: Find the completed models in the application macro library1.
