Antenna Array

Analysis > Antenna

The Antenna Array dialog provides options to define an antenna array using RX antennas.

Pattern

Select the pattern of the antenna array. The following patterns are supported:
  • Single Element
  • Linear / Rectangular
  • Circular / Cylindrical
  • Custom

Rotation

Define the rotation of the full antenna array. The following methods are supported:
  • Three axes: The antenna array is rotated around the X and Y and Z axes using the specified angles in degrees.
  • Down tilt & Azimuth: The antenna array is rotated using the specified angles in degrees. Down tilt is the downwards angle from the vertical axis. The azimuth angle = 0° points in the X direction and azimuth angle = 90° points in the Y direction.

Antennas in Array

In the table, specify each RX antenna in the antenna array. For custom arrays, each RX antenna can be given an X, Y or Z offset.
