Introduction to PToolKit 1.0

User can select a model and decide to compute one of them, switching among the parameters and choosing the sampling step of each of them, or changing the gap.

Database of models of antennas in PToolKit.

In the node PatchModel the user can choose different models of antennas as:

F-Inverted L-InvertedMeander_Antenna...

Smart Parametric Analysis Antennas within the database.

Once the computation has been completed MBSA-E plot a figure in which are shown the parametric variations whose density is due to the size of sampling step.

MBSE-A store the results in the History tab, allowing the user to restart the simulation in a second time.

These data can be extracted from the structured .mat file and used to fill a n-dimensional matrix.

The n-dimensional matrix generated from the parametric analisys can be shown by a sample plugIn, whose let the user to slide among the boundary of the parameters.

So user can choose to watch a parametric configuration just sliding the bars. Or click in the rigth green check box to watch a single slide.

The user can export the current configuration in ADF-EMS by pressing ‘’Export current settings in ADF-EMS’’ bottom the sliders.

Or decide to search the desired frequency inside the database by pressing ‘’Search’’.

Search within the database.

In the search window the user can choose the desired input frequency to search, the BandWith, and the required |S11|. After pressing on ‘’Search Input Value’’ the plugIn will search the nearest frequency, giving the Uncertainty from your input, S11, Band and Geometry.

Search within the database.

Once the user found the result, he can decide to plot the information in the main window, easly watching the band by a trasparent rectangle and the frequency by a green line.

Optimization procedure applied on the model of the database.

If the user dont’t find the desired input frequency, he can choose to press the ‘’Optimization’’ button.

This button run the “Optimization Algorithm”, so the software find the best solution that satisfies the Input Search parameters.


Gianluca Fronte 11


After pressing on ‘’Optimization’’ button the window will plot the information of the nearest frequency, giving the S11, and Geometry.

Those information can be expoted in ADF-EMS by pressing ‘’Export in ADF-EMS’’.

In the right figure we can watch the result of the analisys having found the Resonancy Frequency at 2725Mhz.

Summary:

Plug In Easy to find the best configuration

Optimization Model optimized

Export result in ADF-EMS

Enter the desired values of S11, band and frequency

Look for the best nearest result in the database
