In the time signal example (attached), a monopole antenna works as a sinusoidal wave transmitter and a dipole does as a receiver.

Step 1: Model setup in CADFEKO and solving in frequency domain

  • Monopole (Tx): Voltage source (1V)
  • Dipole (Rx): 50 Ohm Load
  • Request: Near field distribution between Tx and Rx

Step 2: Define a input time signal in POSTFEKO

  • Input time signal: Sinusoidal wave of 300 MHz
  • Time analysis > New time signal
  • Signal type = Define pulse mathematically
  • Time axis unit= ns
  • Total signal duration = 10 ns
  • f(t)= sin(2*3.14*300*10^6*t)

Step 3: Post-process the time domain output from “Time analysis” tab

  • Put the near-field distribution in 3D view

  • Add the voltages measured at Tx and Rx ports to Rectangular graph
