Examples
The newFASANT User Guide contains a collection of examples that teaches you newFASANT concepts and essentials.
Utilities
The newFASANT utilities allows you to set up a remote server, use the batch utility to mesh and execute a project or upload a project to a queueing system.
GUI
An overview of the newFASANT graphical user interface is given.
Post-Process
Results can be post-processed to obtain customized results.
Antennas
A large collection of antennas are supported as well as importing radiation patterns and specifying the antenna feeding.
Materials
Materials can be defined, edited, deleted and assigned to specific surfaces or objects.
Command Line
The command line can be used to draw geometries or change the GUI configuration.
GTD
GTD can be used for 3D analysis of on board antennas and coverage parameters for radiocommunications systems.
PO
PO is used for radar cross section analysis of electrically large and complex targets using physical optics (PO).
GTD-PO
GTD-PO combines the GTD and PO high-frequency techniques for the RCS analysis of complex bodies as well as antenna and radio propagation in large urban environments.
MONCROS
MONCROS is used for 3D radar cross section (RCS) using the method of moments (MOM) technique.
MOM
MOM is used for the 3D analysis of complex antennas, on board antennas, electromagnetic compatibility and radar cross section (RCS).
Periodical Structures
Periodical structures is used for the analysis and design of reflection and transmission coefficients in periodical structures and metamaterials.
Parabolic Equation
PE is used for the analysis of radio-wave propagation over land and sea for medium and large distances.

Viewing Capacity Results

The menu "Show Results -> MIMO Capacity" provides several options to visualize the capacity of the MIMO system:

Figure 1. MIMO Capacity menu

The first option, "View Capacity by Frequency", allows the visualization of the capacity in terms of the frequency at a given step. When this option is selected, the following panel will appear:

Figure 2. MIMO Capacity by frequency

In this panel, the user can visualize many plots by selecting the step, the parameter set and pressing the "Add Series" button. In addition, it is possible to import existing series from a text file and export a currently shown series to a text file. The user can also change the color of the series and delete them.

Selecting the "View Capacity by Step" menu option will show a similar panel:

Figure 3. MIMO Capacity by step

In this case, the user can visualize the capacity values in terms of the step for a given frequency value. It is possible to add more plots for different frequency values by selecting the frequency and parameter set and pressing the "Add Series" button. The rest of the functionality is the same as in the "MIMO Capacity by frequency" panel.

If the user selects the "Capacity text files" menu option, a panel will appear (right side of the next figure). This panel will ask the user the step and the parameter set they want to see the results for. When the "OK" button is pressed, the requested text file will be shown.

At the bottom of the "Text File" panel, there is a button labeled as "Save as..." that allows the user to save this text file to a user-given location in their local filesystem.
