InnovAntennas invest in Ansys

InnovAntennas have invested in Ansys HFSS 2020 R2, a fully three-dimensional mesh-based simulation package to help in the design and production of the new OWL and LFA Ultra range of lightweight Yagis.

HFSS allows for extremely accurate simulation of the complete antenna, including booms, insulators, coax cable and so on. This removes a lot of manual confirmation time and uncertainty above the final results.

Ansys HFSS gives InnovAntennas the ability to not to have to use or apply any correction as each antenna is modelled and finalised with the boom and insulators in place. Once completed, the antenna can be built to the final software suggested sizes and without adjustment.

The Ansys electronics suite is used to simulate accurately many of today’s problems. Be it antenna placement results on aircraft, or motor vehicles, to airflow/wind tunnel simulations for the motor industry. HFSS is even used to simulate radiation patterns of mobile/Cell phones when placed within a human hand.

In addition to the standard line of products, InnovAntennas offer customer antennas and systems, including EME (Earth moon Earth), Radio Astronomy and OHR (Over the Horizon Radar).
