Overview The growing demand for wireless connectivity and remote sensing requires antenna solutions customized for optimal system performance, cost, and size. Satisfying multiple performance metrics such as impedance matching, gain, radiation efficiency, and operating bandwidth is a time-consuming process involving numerous iterations and a significant amount of design knowledge. With the expected demand for design experience greatly exceeding the current supply of antenna engineers, an alternative approach such as AntSyn™ is warranted. AntSyn is a cloud-based Software as a Service (SaaS,) automated antenna design, synthesis, and optimization tool that takes antenna engineering requirements as input and produces antenna designs as outputs. AntSyn was designed to be used by all levels of experience, from experts to those who are relatively new to antenna design. The self-guiding templates are intuitive and easy to use, supporting dozens of antenna types ranging from spirals to patch antennas to Yagi and Vivaldi styles, including many types that are only available using computer-based optimization Browser-based interface Cloud-based execution for faster and more efficient design space exploration Proprietary evolutionary algorithm for: ■ Improved antenna performance via smart optimization ■ Exploring novel design options Diverse range of antenna types ■ High-efficiency ■ Handset ■ Loaded ■ Electrically small ■ Phased-array ■ Multiband ■ And more Data export to: ■ NI AWR Design Environment™ (Microwave Office and Analyst™) ■ ANSYS and CST ■ STEP DXE SolidWorks and FreeCAD ■ Excel for performance parameters Antenna Libniy* Learn more ▼ Select all planar antennas 0 NATIONAL ^INSTRU
Open the catalog to page 1How it Works Step 1. The antenna design process in AntSyn is intended to be Step 2. Input antenna specifications such as frequency band, relatively simple. The first of four steps is to create a project and target impedance match (return loss), gain pattern, and more into spec sheet. Step 3. AntSyn returns one or more optimized antenna designs. The Step 4. Finalize design selection and export to realize end- results such as voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR), return loss (dB), system design within NI AWR Design Environment or your complex impedance (Z), max gain vs. frequency, and more are...
