Creation of a Single Beam Antenna
In this section, you will be guided through the process of creating an Antenna with a single beam. The Beam may be circular, elliptical or shaped in cross-section.
Begin by selecting Antenna from the Model Menu
Select the Single Beam option and click Ok. The Antenna properties dialog will be displayed.
Antenna Name
The name of the Antenna (defaults to Antenna Type) is shown in bold in the top left-hand corner of the dialog. When the mouse passes over the name, the cursor also changes to a ‘caret’
If you click on the name, it changes to an edit box so that you can enter a name for your Antenna. This is shown below.
There are four options under Single Beam, each relating to how the cross-section of the beam will be specified. The choice made determines what other parameters are needed to fully define the Antenna.
Each of the input parameter options is now explained in turn.
