Overview
Designing and optimising antenna elements for target frequency bands, radiation patterns, bandwidth, and efficiency — from initial concept geometry through parametric optimisation to final validated antenna element design ready for integration.
Deliverables
Key Aspects
Developing antenna element geometries — patch, monopole, dipole, slot, PIFA, helix — and parametrically optimising dimensions for target resonant frequency, bandwidth, and efficiency.
Computing 3D radiation patterns, gain, HPBW, front-to-back ratio, and polarisation characteristics across the target frequency band and evaluating pattern compliance with system link requirements.
Evaluating radiation efficiency, total efficiency including mismatch losses, and surface current distribution to identify dominant loss mechanisms and guide material and geometry improvements.
Applying techniques including parasitic elements, meandering, slot loading, and substrate optimisation to extend antenna bandwidth while maintaining target gain and pattern characteristics.
