Overview
Join this webinar for an introduction to Ansys Electronics Desktop (AEDT) with a focus on HFSS for periodic structures and antenna arrays analysis. We will begin by exploring different approaches for creating antenna geometries in HFSS and show how these models can serve as the foundation for more advanced electromagnetic simulations. The session will then cover the analysis of unit cells, including a detailed explanation of boundary conditions and excitation ports for open-region problems and periodic structures.
Building on these concepts, we will demonstrate efficient workflows for performing rapid preliminary studies of ideally infinite arrays and show several methods for accurately modeling and analyzing finite antenna arrays in HFSS. Practical examples will illustrate real-world applications and best practices, followed by a live demonstration of the complete workflow. The webinar will conclude with an overview of the resources available through Ansys for students who want to further develop their skills in these and other types of electromagnetic simulations.
What Attendees Will Learn
- Antenna modeling techniques in Ansys HFSS
- Unit cell analysis and electromagnetic periodicity
- Open-region and periodic boundary conditions
- Infinite and finite antenna array simulation workflows
- Practical application examples and live HFSS demonstration of periodic structures and arrays
Who Should Attend
This webinar is designed for students, researchers, and early-career engineers interested in antenna design, electromagnetics, RF/microwave engineering, and computational simulation. It is particularly valuable for those looking to gain practical experience with Ansys HFSS and understand how to model, analyze, and optimize periodic structures and antenna arrays. Attendees will benefit from a combination of theoretical concepts, simulation best practices, and hands-on demonstrations that can be applied to academic projects, research activities, and future industry applications.
