Module Title:Antenna Design Laboratory I
  Antennendesign Praktikum I
Department: Faculty 1 - Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics, Electrical Engineering and Information Technology
Responsible Staff Member:
  • Prof. Dr.-Ing. Dr.-Ing. habil. Ndip, Ivan
Language of Teaching / Examination:English
Duration:1 semester
Frequency of Offer: Every summer semester
Credits: 6
Learning Outcome:After successfully completing the module, students will be able to model, simulate and analyze single elements of an antenna configuration using a 3D field solver, e.g. Ansys HFSS. They will also be able to create layouts of the antenna elements and perform S-parameter measurements.
Contents:
  • Basic concepts of antenna design
  • Introduction to high-frequency modelling and simulation of antennas using 3D field solvers, e.g. Ansys HFSS
  • Practical design and layout of an antenna element, selected from the antenna configurations in module “Antennas I” or module “Grundlagen der Antennen”
  • Investigation of the impact of the geometrical parameters of the antenna elements and substrate materials on antenna characteristics using a 3D field solver
  • S-parameter measurements
  • Documentation of results
