MATLAB OR HFSS....give yr valuable suggestions

Hi everyone...

I want to simulate phased array (2-dipoles quater lambda spaced)antenna

1: Far field pattern
2: Directivity
3: Gain...etc.....

which is appropriate....MATLAB or HFSS.

MATLAB is not recognizing polar or polar_dB commands...
it may need antenna toolbox.....I have RF toolbox...

About HFSS i have no idea....I have simulated an array in HFSS...but about Phased array I have no idea...

So can u guys give me any tips....
Just a tip for HFSS ............

HFSS is good..
I will say use Agilent ADS..

for me i will say use cst

I would use HFSS or ADS. There is also another software called NEC...it is text based but useful for regular wire antenna applications. Good luck.

so have you got any idea of Phase array....?

strange to compare a 3d tool to a more or less programming approach - CST should also be included since it has time and frequency domain solvers - it can cover a broad range of antenna types....
