Abstract
Nowadays valuable and efficient numerical methods allow an empirical approach in the design of antennas for high-frequency wireless communication systems. Generally these numerical techniques apply either time- or frequency-domain algorithms demanding high computational efforts and long-time processing. Moreover, the initially assumed geometrical configuration can strongly affect the numerical convergence efficiency. With reference to a meander antenna, this paper highlights the computational improvement achievable by applying a transmission line model to the definition of an initial geometry, to be numerically optimized, the sizes of which are nearly to the final ones.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
