Abstract

FEKO is a 3D simulation tool for the analysis of electromagnetic fields. FEKO can solve the problem of any structural type with a very comprehensive MoM code or other tailored code. In this paper, a radiation pattern for conformal phased array antenna on the surface of a PEC finite cylinder is calculated using FEKO 4.0. The simulation results accord with the true characteristics of conformal array antenna on a finite length cylinder. The results also can meet with which in related reference. So, the simulation can be proved to be correct. Furthermore, the patterns of different scanning angle for this conformal phased array are simulated and some important parameters of the array patterns are given.
