Is there any option in feko to import far field radiation pattern E theta and E phi?
Please help
Hi Sirajudheen,
Under field data, there is the option to import a far field radiation pattern.

Hello @Sirajudheen
Have you managed to import the radiation pattern?
The answer above tells you how to import the data to use it as a source in further simulations - see the 'Field Data' and 'Equivalent Sources' sections in the CADFEKO chapter of the Feko User Guide. If it is not a Feko far field result (.ffe file), you can refer to the AR card documentation for the required format.
You can also import the data into POSTFEKO to plot it on a graph - see the 'Data Import' section in the POSTFEKO chapter of the Feko User Guide. If the format is not Feko far field data (.ffe), you can import it as a custom data file.
Kind regards
Madelé

I try to use AR card in EditFEKO after I got the radiation pattern of a horn antenna.
However, while configuring the simulation setup, how to match the antenna looking direction to the target area?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards

For the AR card you should use the Position and Rotation boxes.
But it would be easier with CADFEKO. Use Field data and the Workplane tab to orient/position the antenna.
