Synopsis

Antenna Modeling Made Easy and Optimized

By using variables, equations, and formulas

Over the last three decades, computerized antenna modeling has significantly advanced. Modeling, a powerful tool in Amateur Radio, can help you to design antennas and optimize their performances.

Today, the EZNEC program is widely used worldwide. A lot was, and still is, written about this program in many books, magazines, and on the internet. Example EZNEC models are widely and easily found and available.

However, EZNEC lacks one option: optimizing the model. To allow optimization, you need the use of variables and formulas. This lack is solved by the author of the AutoEZ application, Dan Maguire, AC6LA.

Whenever you Google "AutoEZ models" or "Optimizing Antenna models," you will be disappointed with the results. Nearly the only source about optimizing an antenna is found at the website of Dan Maguire and my website on5au.be, and my book publications: "Advanced Antenna Modeling" and "Practical Antenna Models - Volume 1".

This new "Practical Antenna Models -Volume 3" handles mainly, for the most part, square loops, delta loops, half loop antennas, multiband delta loops, horizontally oriented loops, star-shape loops, the IL-ZX loop, the Hentenna, magnetic loops, and various matching methods, etc.

Again, EZNEC and AutoEZ models are intensively used, step by step, thoroughly explained, and many AutoEZ tricks revealed.
