Antenna Catalog

Parameterized antenna elements, custom antennas, backing structures, geometry visualization

The Antenna Catalog offers a comprehensive collection of ready-to-use antenna objects for a wide range of applications. Each antenna design is fully parameterized, allowing you to customize dimensions and materials to meet specific requirements. The Antenna Catalog also provides objects for creating custom antennas using built-in shapes, CAD imports, planar mesh modeling, and boundary point definitions. Using built-in analysis functions, analyze and visualize antenna performance, including radiation patterns, impedance, bandwidth, efficiency, and more. Leverage AI-based antenna models of supported catalog elements to rapidly explore the design space, tune, and analyze those elements.

Integrate these antennas into RF systems using the Antenna (RF Blockset) block. Use these antennas as elements in finite and infinite arrays, phased arrays (Phased Array System Toolbox), and as transmitters and receivers in a satellite scenario (Satellite Communications Toolbox). Use these antennas as transmitters, receivers, or transmitter-receivers in the RF Budget Analyzer (RF Toolbox) app.

To learn how to create, visualize, and analyze antennas, see Antenna Modeling and Analysis.

To interactively design, analyze, and optimize antennas, use the Antenna Designer app.
