Electromagnetics: Antenna Coverage Analysis for an Aircraft

This example guides you through creating and performing an antenna placement simulation on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.

You will learn how to:

• Create a simulation that models the far-field directivity of an installed antenna.
• Select a platform and antenna to add to your simulation using 3DSearch.
• Define placement candidates using axis systems.
• Configure the master simulation project in CST Studio Suite.
• Request data output for pertinent variables.
• Generate obscuration plots to determine the viability of placement candidates before running a simulation.
• Review and compare placement candidates based on their simulation results.
