Stellenbosch, South Africa, Darmstadt, Germany — Three companies, Magus (Pty) Ltd., CST - Computer Simulation Technology AG (CST), and EM Software & Systems-S.A. (Pty) Ltd., have released a new software product to accelerate the antenna design and modelling process, designated Antenna Magus.
The first antenna design tool of its kind, the expert system offers a huge database of antennas that can be explored to find, design and export models of designed antennas to MICROWAVE STUDIO® from CST and FEKO from EM Software & Systems. It is expected that Antenna Magus will become an invaluable aid to antenna design engineers, to EMC engineers requiring antenna models and to system integrators who require antenna models for antenna placement studies.
Antenna Magus is an expert system for antenna design which is suitable for a broad range of applications because of the number of antennas in its database. Its feature set is targeted at aiding engineers get to the customisation phase of an antenna design quickly and reliably. Validated, parametric models of the initial design are exported seamlessly into FEKO or CST MICROWAVE STUDIO, where customisation can be done in tried-and-trusted analysis tools.
Antenna Magus will expand both the number of antennas it can design and export, as well as in the number of analysis tools it interfaces with.
Sam Clarke, Managing Director, Magus comments, "The seamless integration with CST MICROWAVE STUDIO and FEKO will create immediate benefit for all users, regardless of experience level with these tools or antenna design."
Antenna Magus will be available immediately through all vendors of CST MICROWAVE STUDIO and FEKO.
