 Antenna  Modeling  
EZNEC  Antenna  Modeling  

•  Models  and  analyzes  nearly  any  kind  of  antenna.  


•  Includes  a  model  of  the  ground.  
•  Plots  eleva@on  and  azimuth  paBerns.  
•  Shows  feed  point  impedance,  SWR,  and  current  distribu@ons.  
•  Describe  antenna  as  a  group  of  straight  conductors.  
•  Add  sources  at  the  feed  points  and  loads  to  simulate  coils  and  traps.  
EZNEC  Antenna  Modeling  

•  We’re  going  to  start  by  modeling  an  80-­‐meter  inverted  vee.  
•  Then  we’ll  add  two  traps  (called  “Loads”)  to  create  a  40-­‐meter  resonance.  
•  Next  we’ll  add  two  more  “fan  dipoles”  for  17-­‐meters  and  12-­‐meters.
