Course Overview
HFSS SBR+ Indoor Wireless starts with the set up and simulation of antenna near fields and shooting and bouncing ray simulation throughout a house. The student will learn how to import CAD models, assign boundary conditions, and evaluate different antenna sources and results, such as near-field contour plots as well as antenna-to-antenna coupling. Modules 1 and 2 guide the student through the workflow and provide context on efficiency, accuracy and run times. Modules 3 and 4 discuss accuracy compared to full wave techniques with the goal of obtaining far-field patterns used to represent transceivers in complex scenes.
Prerequisites
- No prior HFSS experience required
- Ansys HFSS for Antenna Design and Ansys HFSS SBR+ Antenna Placement are highly recommended courses.
- Knowledge of electromagnetics and antenna principles, including near field and far fields, is required.
Teaching Method
The course is entirely based on self-paced video lectures which include workshop examples demonstrated. Workshop simulation files are provided, and, in most cases, you should follow along with the videos.
