Efficient Design of Antenna Radomes

Exposure to harsh environmental conditions such as heavy rain, extreme temperatures, and strong winds can have adverse effects on the way the antenna transmits or receives signals. To protect antennas from these conditions and other environmental factors, enclosures known as radomes can be placed around them. An efficient radome shall be transparent to electromagnetic signals while meeting the physical and aerodynamic requirements. It is crucial that the radome be rigid and averts the accumulation of ice and water. The operating frequency, the material and the shape of the radome can influence the antenna radiation and lead to bigger losses.
In this webinar, we will shed light on some of the radome design challenges.  We shall show you -step by step- how to overcome such challenges, thus, achieve an efficient design of antenna radomes, using 3D high-frequency electromagnetic virtual prototyping software.  A plethora of results will be presented  including, near- and far-fields, antenna radiation patterns, antenna gain, parametric studies, and what-if scenarios.
