Toolbar Quick Overview

Pre - Process toolbar (activated when ICARE is launched) :


Media

Define the electrical properties of the different media.


Interfaces

Set either the calculation technique for this surface and the electrical properties of this surface.


Antennas

Assign the radius to the different wire elements.


Antenna Nodes

Assign special properties on wire nodes (short circuits or localized impedances)


Frequency

Define the analysis frequency range


Particular Planes

Define the symmetry planes or/and the ground plane


Plane Wave

In case of a reception problem, define the direction of arrival of the plane wave


Source Point

In case of a reception problem, define the position of the source point


RCS

Define directions of arrival and of observation for a Radar Cross Section problem (monostatic or bistatic)


Voltage Source

Assign the voltage sources on nodes belonging to wires elements. The source point may equally be located at a connection point


Wave guide

Data for a waveguide section


Far Field

Define the angles for the far field pattern


Near Field

Specify the coordinates of near field points of observation


Visualizations

Check the sources, the symmetry planes, the near field and far field points and direction of observations


Generate Mesh

Create the mesh


Check data file

Check and create the electromagnetic data : file data.txt


Options

Specify options as a s-matrix calculation for instance


Run ICARE

Start the computation




Post - Process toolbar (activated when a computation succeed) :


Results file

Display the main output file containing a summary of the computation


Curves display

Display radiation and RCS patterns


3D results

Display 3D results (currents, near field, far field and RCS)
