Case : two monopoles on a metallic box
First create the box :
The extrude utility function of GiD can be used
To create a plate :
First corner coordinates : (0, 0, 0)
Second corner : (0.196, 0.098, 0)
Choose 'copy' in the 'utilities' menu
Select :
then select the plate and 'finish'
Geometry obtained
Now create the two monopoles :
First monopole (a line) : (0.06, 0.049, 0.02) => (0.06, 0.049, 0.0365)
Second monopole (a line) : (0.136, 0.049, 0.02) => (0.136, 0.049, 0.0365)
We can delete the bottom surface of the box with and select
or with Geometry => Delete => Surface :
Check the normals of the box's surfaces and of the wires
The geometry is complete.
Next assign the electrical properties.
Assign an interface properties on the 5 surfaces of the box
Assign an antenna property to the wires (Radius 0.0005 m)
Assign a voltage source on the two points in contact with the box (with two different names)
Assign a short-circuit condition at these points
Set the frequency to 3000 MHz, a step of 100 MHz and 21 steps
Open options window and select the S-Matrix option :
Save
Generate the Mesh
Run
