研究目的
Investigating the determination of the focal length in lens antennas using a full-wave, two-dimensional (2D) electromagnetic simulator based on the method of moments (MoM).
研究成果
The determination of the focus of the lens antenna according to theoretical calculations differs from that obtained by simulation in the biconvex antenna due to the application of ray optics in theoretical models versus full wave analysis in simulations. The simulations demonstrate the importance of having electromagnetic simulation tools with full-wave methods for more accurate determination of the focal distance, particularly for applications in microwaves.
研究不足
The theoretical determination of the focal length is not dependent on the size of the lens, while simulation shows a more accurate determination considering electromagnetic effects such as diffraction in the edges.
